Taiwan News·medium signal

Taiwan's Administration for Cyber Security issued a warning on May 14 that frontier AI models are lowering the cost and increasing the scale of cyberattacks. The agency specifically cited Anthropic's Mythos finding thousands of high-severity vulnerabilities in major OS and browsers, and OpenAI's GPT-5.5 improving attack efficiency. Taiwan will convene government, industry, and academic leaders for national-level response strategies and strengthen SME support through TWCERT/CC.
