Competition in large language models is intensifying as leading AI companies in the United States and China release new systems more frequently. OpenAI unveiled GPT-5.5 and began distributing it to paying ChatGPT users, while Anthropic launched Claude Opus 4.7. China’s DeepSeek released preview versions of V4 and Moonshot AI unveiled Kimi-K2.6. The coding AI market is also being reshaped by capital-heavy companies, including SpaceX securing an option to acquire Cursor for $60 billion.

With South Korea set to implement the National Cybersecurity Basic Guidelines in May and introduce the N2SF framework, security companies are accelerating efforts to target expected demand for related solutions. The guidelines include data controls based on classification levels, minimum security budget and staffing ratios, mandatory multi-factor authentication and new measures for AI systems and private cloud security. Interest is also rising in Anthropic’s Mythos AI model, prompting governments and companies to prepare responses.
