Security News > 2022 > November > Twitter CISO flies the coop

Troubled social media giant Twitter has lost the services of its chief information and security officer to cap off another chaotic week following its acquisition by Elon Musk.

Chief privacy officer Damien Kieran and chief compliance officer Marianne Fogarty are also said to have exited.

Separately, it's reported that the world's richest man has told Twitter that work-from-home is banned, and that staff need to work 40 or more hours a week from the office from now on.

The gray "Official" label was announced as a way to differentiate verified accounts from Twitter Blue subscribers, all of whom get the formerly exclusive blue check mark.

Perhaps the latest week of Twitter chaos was one too many to bear.

An internal legal memo leaked from within Twitter, and reported by The Verge, has suggested Musk is willing to risk regulatory fines and more to recoup his multi-billion-dollar losses on Twitter by monetizing the site and app more and more.
