360 Security Technology has launched Tulong Feng, an AI tool for vulnerability detection, asserting it as China's answer to Anthropic's Mythos 5.
At the ISC.AI 2026 conference held in Beijing on June 24, Zhou Hongyi, the founder of 360 Security Technology, unveiled Tulong Feng, an AI tool designed for automatic vulnerability detection. This development is positioned as China's response to Anthropic's Mythos 5, as reported by Reuters.
Tulong Feng is part of a broader initiative called the Yitian Tulong package, which also features the automated protection system Yitian Zhen. Additionally, 360 has established the "Basalt Shield" coalition aimed at supporting companies involved in critical infrastructure and the IT sector focused on import substitution, according to Securities Times.
Zhou revealed that Tulong Feng has detected 3,432 software vulnerabilities, with 105 confirmed by Chinese regulators, some of which have been classified as highly critical and added to the national database. However, these figures have not been independently verified by Reuters.
Emphasizing a distinct approach, Zhou stated that China should not follow the U.S. model of depending on the most advanced computing technology and chips. Instead, 360 aims to develop AI agents that combine language models, the expertise of security professionals, and comprehensive knowledge bases regarding vulnerabilities.
This announcement follows a recent request from the U.S. government for Anthropic to suspend access to its models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, for foreign users. Anthropic complied by disabling access to both models for all clients while working to restore it.
The U.S. concerns reportedly arose from potential access to the Mythos model by groups linked to China. In response to these restrictions on Anthropic, OpenAI launched its specialized model for identifying and addressing vulnerabilities, GPT-5.5-Cyber, and has begun offering limited access to GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna to select partners at the request of U.S. officials.
In the same month, Anthropic accused entities associated with Alibaba of attempting to distill its model Claude.
