OpenClaw – an opensource AI agent dubbed “Claude with hands” – has exploded across GitHub, rocketing from obscurity to 170,000 stars in just two weeks. It’s now the fastest spreading form of shadow IT, with users plugging it into critical environments long before understanding the risks.
Combine that with Moltbook, the new social platform where AI agents interact at scale, and you’ve got a volatile new frontier – one where scores of human-controlled agents bury prompt injections in plain sight and create attack surfaces no one has prepared for.
In this episode of State of Cybercrime, Matt and David unpack why OpenClaw and Moltbook represent a watershed moment in AI adoption and how easily enthusiasm is outpacing security. They’re joined by Moriah Hara, three-time award-winning Fortune 500 CISO, who brings her seasoned perspective to our new segment: “Voices from the Frontlines.”
