Google launches a cheaper alternative to large AI security models like Mythos
Summary
Google has launched Gemini 3.5 Flash Cyber, an AI security model engineered to provide a cost-efficient alternative to high-end systems like Anthropic's Mythos. Integrated into Google's CodeMender agent, the model allows for high-speed scanning of code paths at a lower price point. In performance tests using the CyberGym benchmark, the model demonstrated competitive capabilities and identified unique vulnerabilities in the V8 JavaScript Engine that other systems missed, marking a significant step in Google's effort to compete in the automated cybersecurity sector.
