Cisco said at Cisco Live APJC in Melbourne on November 10 that it would add Anthropic’s Claude Mythos to AI Defense to help enterprises red-team AI applications and agents.

Anthropic is an AI company based in the US. Cisco said access would be available soon to select enterprises.

Cisco said testing would be limited to customer-owned targets authorized for assessment.

The company added that each engagement would require authenticated, named operators, and include audit logs.

Anthropic recently introduced Claude Mythos 5.2. Cisco did not specify which version it would use.

Splunk Agent Observability’s Tokenomics cost-governance feature will enter private preview in December.

General availability on Amazon Web Services (AWS) Marketplace is planned for early 2027.

Evaluation models and the Evaluation Tuner will become generally available this month.

Cisco also announced Cisco IQ updates that link infrastructure exposure data with Splunk threat detections and ServiceNow remediation workflows.

The move extends Cisco’s security push that it has framed around Cisco Security Cloud.
