"This attack is just shedding light on the fact that you're even more vulnerable outside of the office, said Don Aviv, CEO of Interfor International, a security consultancy."
"We've seen some executives saying, 'You know what, I'm not even going to wait for my company to pick up a tab. I'm going to pay for it because the threat is real,' Aviv said."
"Organizations are taking a closer look at how well their top executives are protected and increasingly recognize that their 'duty of care' extends to the home, family, and travel, said Dale Buckner, head of the security firm Global Guardian."
The Molotov cocktail attack on Sam Altman's home highlights the growing safety concerns for CEOs outside corporate environments. Security experts emphasize that social media makes it easier to track executives and their families. The incident adds urgency to existing worries, especially following the 2024 killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Companies are now expanding protective measures to include personal lives, with some executives opting to pay for their own security. Organizations are recognizing their duty of care extends to home and family, indicating a need for improved defenses.
