Devon Ackerman shared thisIR pros and the entire cyber insurance ecosystem need to sit and consider the impact of Claude Mythos. It autonomously discovered 1000s of 0-day vulnerabilities across every major OS and browser. It chained kernel exploits. It escaped sandboxes. It did things that would have required a team of elite researchers weeks to accomplish, and it did them overnight. This is a seismic shift to the threat landscape. I keep coming back to: If AI can discover and exploit vulnerabilities at this scale and speed, the window between exposure and exploitation just… collapses. The incident volume implications alone are staggering. And that raises questions the industry hasn't fully grappled with yet, not even after MOVEIt or Log4Shell. Can your IR firm actually respond when ten of their clients get hit in the same week? Maintaining the same level of accuracy across all engagements? What does their bench look like? What does their surge protocol look like? Does your retainer guarantee hours, or does it guarantee people? For insurers: how do you price a risk environment where the historical loss data is about to become obsolete? At what point does "IR preparedness" become a hard underwriting gate rather than a checkbox on an application? Orgs across the board, including corporates, law firms, insurance carriers and brokers - that treat IR preparedness as a strategic asset rather than a compliance exercise are going to look very different from those that don't. It'll be a bumpy ride. How ready are you? LevelBlue is.
