AI is supercharging cyberattacks, exposing small hospitals, banks and nonprofits
Recent advances in AI agent models have made it easier for attackers to automate and scale cyberattacks, while the most powerful defensive models (e.g., Anthropic's Mythos, OpenAI's Astra) are reserved for major firms and critical maintainers. As a result, smaller institutions—from community hospitals and local banks to nonprofits like Vivian’s Door—face growing, asymmetric cybersecurity risks and limited access to the tools to defend themselves.
