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 substitution IT sector.
Zhou stated that Tulong Feng has already identified 3,432 software vulnerabilities. Of these, 105 have been confirmed by Chinese regulators, with several classified as highly critical in the national database. However, Reuters was unable to independently verify these figures.
Zhou argued that China should not replicate the American approach, which focuses on “the strongest model, the most powerful computing, and the most advanced chips.” Instead, 360 emphasizes AI agents that integrate language models, security experts’ experience, and vulnerability knowledge bases.
Earlier, Chinese startup Zhipu AI released its flagship language model GLM-5.2 for long agent tasks and programming. The open-source solution features a context window of 1 million tokens, an MIT license, and support for local deployment.
This came days after the U.S. government requested Anthropic to suspend access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for foreign nationals. The company disabled both models for all clients and stated it is working to restore access.
Reportedly, the White House’s concerns over potential access by a China-linked group to the Mythos model prompted the restrictions.
Amid restrictions for Anthropic, OpenAI launched the full version of its specialized model for finding, verifying, and fixing vulnerabilities, GPT-5.5-Cyber. At the end of June, the company at the request of U.S. authorities opened limited access to GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna for a small group of trusted partners.
Earlier that month, Anthropic accused operators linked to Alibaba of distilling Claude.
