Local models!!

This is where the focus needs to be.

Congrats Clint!! This is a BIG deal.

Career update: I’ve joined @OpenAI to lead Cyber with @michaelaiello.

Why I joined, and what we’ll be building:

It’s clear that AI is fundamentally changing how software is being written and secured.

Coding agents are writing the majority of code for many developers, software is getting shipped more quickly, and vulnerabilities that were latent for 20 years are being discovered at a rapid pace. The time to bug discovery, and exploitation once discovered, are trending down (H/T @EppSecurity and @gadievron).

I believe we have an unparalleled opportunity to fundamentally 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘦 cybersecurity in ways that were previously impossible. (H/T @bubblewire’ BSidesSF keynote on reasons for optimism)

Over 6 years at @Semgrep, I had the privilege of working with an amazing team building what has become the most popular open source security code scanning tool in the world, that many companies have built their application security program around.

Now, at @OpenAI, I’m thrilled to be a part of a company helping shape how software is written, and how security work gets done. It is a massive opportunity, and responsibility, and I don’t take that lightly.

Here are my current thoughts about where things are headed:

𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐛𝐲 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧. Defenders are not going to win playing bug whack-a-mole. We need to systematically eliminate classes of vulnerabilities, via generating secure code and streamlining the detect → validate → fix process.

𝐀𝐮𝐠𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞. We should build models and tools that give defenders “superpowers,” enabling them to be more ambitious in the scope they tackle, shift from being reactive to proactive, and allow them to automate the drudgery so they can focus on the highest leverage work.

𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐬. The world runs on open source software. OpenAI has already spent $Ms finding and patching vulnerabilities in the most popular and widely run software, including browsers, operating systems, and core libraries. More on this soon. We’re also working on helping secure critical infrastructure.

𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬. Securing the world is a community effort. I’m looking forward to partnering with cybersecurity vendors, researchers, practitioners, governments, and more to do together what we can’t do alone.

𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝. Tactically, here are some domains I’m excited about:

- Finding, validating, and reliably patching software vulnerabilities at scale.

- Eliminating classes of vulnerabilities and making software resilient by design.

- Giving broad access to the best cyber models to empower defenders, not just to a select few.

- Creating and sharing Skills and playbooks that help in many security domains.

- Building platforms that enable defenders to easily orchestrate security work.

- Making enterprise agents safe and reliable.

Time to build 😎

What would help you most? What should we build?

Let me know.

This is how I can tell AI helped you write your script.

Listen for it, it’s everywhere.

“and here’s what nobody is going to tell you.”

“and here is what no one is talking about”

It’s the new em dash.

Congrats Keyse!!! So proud of you!

[Keyse De Araujo @keyse_araujo]

Had the chance to meet this incredible guy at @CiscoLive! Thanks for the encouragement and the kind words!!!

Y’ll take note:
@NetworkChuck @JeremysITLab @flackboxtv are the absolute foundation for the CCNA exam!

I just came from the testing center and I passed my CCNA!!! 🥳🥳

If you want to get into hacking, what’s the first course you need to take?

CCNA. I’ve partnered with Jeremy Cioara, and this is the exact moment you finally learn the CCNA knowledge for FREE.

Since I started using Tmux properly, it has become my best friend. 

It’s amazing! If you use a terminal or CLI in any capacity, Tmux will boost your productivity in seconds.
