After dissing Anthropic for limiting Mythos, OpenAI restricts access to Cyber, too

在抨击 Anthropic 限制 Mythos 使用后，OpenAI 也对 Cyber 实施了访问限制

After Sam Altman trash-talked Anthropic for gatekeeping its cybersecurity tool Mythos by only releasing it to select users, he confirmed that OpenAI would be doing the same with its competing tool, Cyber. 在萨姆·奥特曼（Sam Altman）抨击 Anthropic 通过仅向特定用户发布其网络安全工具 Mythos 来进行“把关”后，他确认 OpenAI 也将对其竞争工具 Cyber 采取同样的做法。

Altman said in a post on X on Thursday that OpenAI will begin rolling out GPT-5.5 Cyber “to critical cyber defenders” in the next few days. OpenAI has an application on its website where people submit information about their credentials and planned use in order to gain access. 奥特曼周四在 X 上发帖称，OpenAI 将在未来几天内开始向“关键网络防御者”推出 GPT-5.5 Cyber。OpenAI 在其网站上提供了一个申请入口，用户需提交其资质和计划用途的相关信息以获取访问权限。

Cyber can perform such tasks as penetration testing, vulnerability identification (and exploitation), and malware reverse engineering, the application implies. It’s intended to be a toolkit to help a company find security holes and test defenses. The fear is that the kit could be misused by the bad guys. 申请页面显示，Cyber 可以执行渗透测试、漏洞识别（及利用）以及恶意软件逆向工程等任务。该工具旨在帮助企业发现安全漏洞并测试防御能力。人们担心的是，该工具包可能会被不法分子滥用。

When Anthropic similarly restricted access to Mythos, Altman called the tactic fear-based marketing. Some critics also thought so, saying Anthropic’s rhetoric was overblown. Ironically, an unauthorized group reportedly managed to gain access to Mythos anyway. 当 Anthropic 以类似方式限制对 Mythos 的访问时，奥特曼曾称这种策略为“基于恐惧的营销”。一些批评人士也持相同观点，认为 Anthropic 的言论过于夸大。讽刺的是，据报道，一个未经授权的组织最终还是设法获得了 Mythos 的访问权限。

OpenAI says it’s working to make Cyber more widely available by consulting with the U.S. government and identifying more users with legit cybersecurity credentials. OpenAI 表示，公司正通过与美国政府协商并识别更多具备合法网络安全资质的用户，努力让 Cyber 得到更广泛的应用。
