The AI system successfully identified a critical structural weakness in the HAWK lattice-based signature scheme, causing its key recovery cost to drop from $2^{64}$ to $2^{38}$ operations within 60 hours. This rapid discovery forced the NIST evaluation team to withdraw the candidate and highlights that algorithm agility is now essential for post-quantum cryptography resilience. The incident demonstrates a significant shift where AI-driven cryptanalysis can outpace traditional human review cycles in securing digital infrastructure against future threats.
Exequantum Details AI’s Break of NIST Post-Quantum Candidate

Anthropic’s Claude Mythos Preview AI identified a weakness in HAWK, a lattice-based signature scheme—a NIST evaluation for future cryptography—leading to its withdrawal.
Anthropic’s Claude Mythos Preview artificial intelligence identified a critical weakness in HAWK, a candidate for post-quantum digital signatures, just 60 hours after beginning its analysis on July 28, 2026. The HAWK team subsequently withdrew the scheme from consideration by the U.S. National Institute of Standards…
