Anthropic deputy CISO Clinton: 'a lot worse before they get better', hold on 18 months
Severity 2ActiveconfirmedAI and software supply chainGovernmentAI-related

Clinton posted that after four bad days things will get a lot worse before they get better, urged security leaders to ask boards for funding for basics rather than AI, called for network isolation of critical infrastructure now, and said defenders should plan for about 18 months of heavy automated exploitation before AI security reasoning in development pipelines catches up.

What to do: Ongoing outlook; no fix implied.

AI angle: Frames the wave as the predicted result of frontier-model cyber capability moving into small, cheap models.
