Viral Texas paramotor close call, panic in the sky, hard landing. Grateful he's okay, but this is terrifying. 😳 🪂

Sorry to all the folks dealing with this. If you've been affected, email the Comp AI team at sales@trycomp.ai before the end of March with your Delve invoice, and they'll give you a year of @compai for free.

Delve, a YC-backed compliance startup that raised $32 million, has been accused of systematically faking SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and GDPR compliance reports for hundreds of clients. According to a detailed Substack investigation by DeepDelver, a leaked Google spreadsheet containing links to hundreds of confidential draft audit reports revealed that Delve generates auditor conclusions before any auditor reviews evidence, uses the same template across 99.8% of reports, and relies on Indian certification mills operating through empty US shells instead of the "US-based CPA firms" they advertise. Here's the breakdown: > 493 out of 494 leaked SOC 2 reports allegedly contain identical boilerplate text, including the same grammatical errors and nonsensical sentences, with only a company name, logo, org chart, and signature swapped in > Auditor conclusions and test procedures are reportedly pre-written in draft reports before clients even provide their company description, which would violate AICPA independence rules requiring auditors to independently design tests and form conclusions > All 259 Type II reports claim zero security incidents, zero personnel changes, zero customer terminations, and zero cyber incidents during the observation period, with identical "unable to test" conclusions across every client > Delve's "US-based auditors" are actually Accorp and Gradient, described as Indian certification mills operating through US shell entities. 99%+ of clients reportedly went through one of these two firms over the past 6 months > The platform allegedly publishes fully populated trust pages claiming vulnerability scanning, pentesting, and data recovery simulations before any compliance work has been done > Delve pre-fabricates board meeting minutes, risk assessments, security incident simulations, and employee evidence that clients can adopt with a single click, according to the author > Most "integrations" are just containers for manual screenshots with no actual API connections. The author describes the platform as a "SOC 2 template pack with a thin SaaS wrapper" > When the leak was exposed, CEO Karun Kaushik emailed clients calling the allegations "falsified claims" from an "AI-generated email" and stated no sensitive data was accessed, while the reports themselves contained private signatures and confidential architecture diagrams > Companies relying on these reports could face criminal liability under HIPAA and fines up to 4% of global revenue under GDPR for compliance violations they believed were resolved > When clients threaten to leave, Delve reportedly pairs them with an external vCISO for manual off-platform work, which the author argues proves their own platform can't deliver real compliance > Delve's sales price dropped from $15,000 to $6,000 with ISO 27001 and a penetration test thrown in when a client mentioned considering a competitor

@johnloeber They’re a security/compliance company, they shouldn’t just have junior engineers. I mean that as offensively as possible.

6 months ago, I found out that Delve only had 5 engineers, and all of them pretty junior (no offense intended). I checked LinkedIn again, they're up to 10 now, it seems Drata? Vanta? Hundreds. Sometimes someone figures out a magic trick in engineering... but it's unlikely.

@jessegenet Uh, I use AI all day every day at enterprise level and he’s 100% accurate. You’ve demonstrated you don’t use AI enough though, congrats

The average person really wants to believe this because then they can just not try hard to get good at using AI right now and not feel behind… they even get to feel smug! fun! don’t fall for it.

@pmarca @Austen I spend all day using AI at the enterprise level, and this guy has a remarkably good read on the reality of AI vs the hype. Better than anyone I’ve seen talk on the subject.

@JTLonsdale @Cernovich Respectfully (heh) disagree. Respect is one of those relationship boundaries and those have to be negotiated. It’s like team culture: you shape it, else it shapes around you (and not in the ways you’d hope). Agree on sentiment to not chase or be needy.

Rabbi Shalom Landau posts banger videos almost every day. He is doing more to discredit anti-Semitism than the people yelling and being nasty all day. You can win more with honey than vinegar.

@neuralamp4ever @Rahll Yes velocity is tracked, but so are incidents. At enterprise scale, incidents will cause your employment to be terminated much faster.

@HimanK17Gupta @Rahll That’s on eng leadership (IC not EM) to make it clear. Can’t expect tech leadership to have clear pulse on limitations especially with all the insane narratives floating around. Workday is good example of alignment from the top.
