Mythos, Glasswing and the View From the UK GCHQ

Hosts David Simon [https://www.skadden.com/professionals/s/simon-david-a] and William Ridgway [https://www.skadden.com/professionals/r/ridgway-william] welcome Skadden [https://www.skadden.com/] colleague Nicola Kerr-Shaw [https://www.skadden.com/professionals/k/kerrshaw-nicola] to discuss how AI vulnerability discovery tools such as Anthropic's Mythos are compressing the timelines around vulnerability discovery, exploitation and remediation, and what that means for board oversight, disclosure obligations and incident response planning. In the second half of the episode, Shehzad Charania [https://www.gov.uk/government/people/shehzad-charania], director of legal affairs and policy at GCHQ [https://www.gchq.gov.uk/], shares the U.K. government's assessment that frontier AI is materially changing the cyber threat landscape by increasing the speed and scale at which vulnerabilities can be found. He explains that organizations that have not addressed their cybersecurity fundamentals and technical debt will be increasingly exposed and warns of a coming wave of forced corrections across the technology ecosystem as AI accelerates the discovery of flaws that must be remediated. His message to boards: make cyber a board-level responsibility, prioritize resilience and plan now to deploy updates quickly and at scale.

Decoding NIS2: Europe's New Cybersecurity Playbook

In this episode of "Decrypted," Skadden's cybersecurity and data privacy co-leads David Simon [https://www.skadden.com/professionals/s/simon-david-a] and William Ridgway [https://www.skadden.com/professionals/r/ridgway-william] sit down with Nicola Kerr-Shaw [https://www.skadden.com/professionals/k/kerrshaw-nicola] in London and Susanne Werry [https://www.skadden.com/professionals/w/werry-susanne] in Frankfurt for a frontline look at NIS2 — the EU directive redefining how organizations must prepare for and report cyber incidents across Europe and beyond. After a quick survey of recent U.S. cyber and AI policy developments, the team dives into what happens when an incident strikes under NIS2 — from the directive's dramatically expanded scope and strict notification deadlines to registration pitfalls, board-level personal liability and the challenge of preserving legal privilege under pressure.The episode wraps with practical takeaways on tabletop exercises, incident response planning and key U.K. developments, including the proposed Cybersecurity and Resilience Bill.
