Jack Cable is an American computer security researcher and entrepreneur. He is co-founder and chief executive of Corridor, a company that builds security tools for AI-assisted software development. He previously served as a senior technical advisor at the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, where he helped lead its Secure by Design initiative, and he is known for his participation in bug bounty programs, including placing first in the U.S. Department of Defense's Hack the Air Force challenge in 2017.
Case
Transluce says AI agents sent failed hacking probes to a Library and Archives Canada search service but does not confidently attribute them to OpenAI. Canada's cyber agency sees no indication of compromise, and OpenAI says it is reviewing. As of October 1, 2026.
Role at the time: First author of the Transluce report and co-founder and chief executive of Corridor, in a post on his X account
Response to this claim
Transluce said on September 30, 2026 that on May 28 and June 9, 2026 the Portuguese web archive Arquivo.pt captured 899 requests to the "collection-search" service of Library and Archives Canada, that 13 of them carried attack payloads including three SQL injection probes, and that it does not believe the probes were successful.
“Today, @corridor and @TransluceAI are disclosing new evidence of AI agents probing and attempting rudimentary vulnerability exploits against U.S. and Canadian government agencies.”
Relative to the proposition that AI agents made attempts to hack the Library and Archives Canada service, Cable asserts it as an author of the report: he describes "AI agents probing and attempting rudimentary vulnerability exploits" against Canadian government agencies among others. That is an attributed accusation, so we used Condemned. The post names no agency and gives no figures, so its detail comes from the report it links. The closest competing label is Challenged the characterization, which does not fit because the post adopts Transluce's description instead of disputing one.
