# US Cracks Down on Anthropic AI Models Amid Abuse Concerns

**[Dark Reading](https://daily.dev/sources/dr)** · 8 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

The US government issued a national-security export control directive forcing Anthropic to suspend all access to its latest AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, blocking foreign nationals including company employees. The move follows Anthropic's own research showing adversaries are using its Claude models across the full cyberattack kill chain — from malware creation and obfuscation to vulnerability discovery and exploit generation. Research from the UK's AISI confirmed Mythos can conduct end-to-end attack chains, and OpenAI's GPT-5.5 was found to surpass it on complex attack tasks. Experts highlight that the real danger lies in the 'scaffolding' around AI models — the architecture and tooling that enables autonomous, orchestrated attacks. Anthropic publicly disagreed with being singled out, warning the standard applied would halt all frontier model deployments industry-wide. The incident also exposes gaps in the MITRE ATT&CK framework for classifying AI-powered offensive techniques.
