Hey there, X community! I'm Leonardo Cooper (@LeonardoCooper), a 3x founder who's scaled startups from zero to exits in tech and beyond. Passionate about simple solutions to big problems, geeking out on space innovations 🚀, revving up with cars, and balancing it all with family adventures and travel.
Quick story: My first startup taught me that scaling isn't about complexity—it's about focus. Tip #1: Prioritize one core metric (like user growth) and iterate ruthlessly. What's your go-to scaling hack?
Let's connect—reply, RT, or follow for more insights on entrepreneurship, space tech, car trends, and life on the road. Excited to build this journey together!

Back in 2016, I wrote a piece asking: Is “Good Enough Security” actually good enough?
Ten years later, in the middle of the AI agent explosion, the answer is unmistakable:
Good enough security is no longer good enough.
It’s quietly becoming one of the biggest risks in the boardroom.
Thread 🧵
So what does real security look like in 2026?
Three principles I still believe in, updated for the agent era:
• Be brutally aware of the new risks — AI-powered attacks, shadow agents, and non-human identities are exploding.
• Ruthlessly classify what actually matters — not every workflow or agent needs the same level of protection.
• When in doubt, choose intelligent security — not more friction, but smarter, just-in-time, least-privilege access that actually gets used.
“Good enough” might have been acceptable when the biggest threat was someone clicking a phishing link.
In the AI agent era, it’s becoming a serious liability.
Security isn’t about being perfect. It’s about building systems resilient enough to keep playing the game safely as technology and threats keep evolving.
