Anthropic deputy CISO: things will "get a lot worse" — boards must fund security basics now
inductionheads · x · 2026-10-23
Anthropic's deputy CISO Jason Clinton warned: "as bad as things have gotten in the past 4 days, they are going to get a lot worse before they get better." He urged security leaders to "never let a crisis go to waste" and go to their boards for help now — not for AI, but for the basics — adding "we need to hold on for 18 months."
A rare, publicly pessimistic assessment from a frontier lab's security executive, hinting at sustained security-incident pressure ahead.
