On June 24, Zhou Hongyi, founder of 360 Security Technology, introduced an AI tool for automatic vulnerability detection called Tulong Feng at the ISC.AI 2026 conference in Beijing. He described the development as China's answer to Anthropic's Mythos 5, according to Reuters.

Tulong Feng is part of the Yitian Tulong package, which also includes the automated protection system Yitian Zhen. According to Securities Times, 360 has also launched the "Basalt Shield" coalition for companies in critical infrastructure and the import-substituting IT sector.

Zhou stated that Tulong Feng has already identified 3,432 software vulnerabilities, with 105 confirmed by Chinese regulators, some of which have been added to the national database as highly critical. However, Reuters was unable to independently verify these figures.

Zhou emphasized that China should not mimic the American approach of relying on "the strongest model, the most powerful computing, and the most advanced chips." Instead, 360 focuses on AI agents that integrate language models, the expertise of security specialists, and knowledge bases on vulnerabilities.

Previously, Chinese startup Zhipu AI released its flagship language model GLM-5.2 for long agent tasks and programming. This open-source solution features a context window of 1 million tokens, an MIT license, and supports local deployment.

This announcement came just days after the U.S. government requested that Anthropic suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for foreign nationals. The company disabled both models for all clients and stated that it is working on restoring access.

Reports suggest that the concern stemmed from the White House over potential access to the Mythos model by a China-linked group.

Amid restrictions on Anthropic, OpenAI launched the full version of its specialized model for searching, verifying, and fixing vulnerabilities, GPT-5.5-Cyber. At the end of June, the company opened limited access to GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna for a small group of trusted partners at the request of U.S. authorities.

It is worth noting that in the same month, Anthropic accused operators linked to Alibaba of distilling Claude.
