US security agency is using Anthropic's Mythos despite blacklist, Axios reports

The NSA is reportedly using Anthropic's Mythos Preview AI tool even after the Pentagon assigned the company a formal supply-chain risk designation. The report underscores continued government interest in AI tools amid procurement and security concerns, but it provides no financial figures or direct business impact. Market impact is likely limited unless the designation affects broader federal adoption or contracting.
