Robert M. Lee, a recognized cybersecurity authority and CEO of Dragos, volunteered for a live hacking demonstration sponsored by VanishID (formerly Picnic). Despite his expertise (he was named Security Executive of the Year for 2022 by SC Media), ethical hacker and CEO of SocialProof Security, Rachel Tobac, successfully targeted him using only publicly available information.
Watch Rob’s reactions and take note of the interventions by Matt Polak, CEO of VanishID, with data insights and commentary that illustrate the magnitude of the problem. This wasn’t a hypothetical exercise — it demonstrated real capabilities available to motivated attackers targeting executive teams right now.
VanishID
VanishID was founded in 2019 on a simple but urgent observation: enterprise security had become extraordinarily sophisticated at protecting systems, and almost entirely blind to protecting the people behind them. The company’s continuous, comprehensive, and turnkey delivery combines agentic AI with OSINT expertise to monitor, remove, and mitigate digital exposure across the external identity layer outside the perimeter, requiring zero effort from security teams or the people they protect.
