Fixed moduli keep lattice PQC simple across security levels
Implementers say varying q, rings, and ranks independently would raise hardware and multi-level code costs more than it gains.

Claude finds a real attack on HAWK, and the NIST forum verifies it
Anthropic says its Claude Mythos Preview model found the key-recovery attack largely on its own, in about 60 hours for roughly $100,000 in compute. Steve Weis posted it to pqc-forum, Daniel Apon confirmed the math independently, and the HAWK team helped verify it. HAWK is a NIST candidate, not deployed, so no software has to change.
