The First Security Hire at Twitter on 20 Years of the Same Mistake - Bob Lord

Episode 3 of Nothing to Steal, CodeZero's biweekly conversation with security leaders on the frontlines of AI adoption. Bob Lord was the first security hire at Twitter, brought in after an FTC consent order. He was CISO at Yahoo when Russian FSB officers were discovered inside the company, a breach serious enough that the US Justice Department indicted two sitting FSB officers, the first time that had ever happened. He became the first Chief Security Officer at the Democratic National Committee after the 2016 hacks, and later helped build CISA's Secure by Design program from the ground up. In this episode, Bob and Reed talk about why the industry's most dangerous vulnerabilities haven't changed in almost 20 years, why AI agents get handed the kind of blanket access no human employee ever would, what actually happened in the Hugging Face and OpenAI breach, and the questions every team should answer before shipping an AI feature. Nothing to Steal is CodeZero's ongoing conversation with the people building and defending the infrastructure AI agents run on.
