Peiter “Mudge” Zatko, a famed hacker who served as Twitter’s head of security until he was fired last year, is set to testify Tuesday before the committee. Senate Judiciary chair Dick Durbin and Republican Chuck Grassley on Tuesday asked Agrawal to answer questions by Sept. 26 including on Zatko’s allegations it “turned a blind eye to foreign intelligence infiltration, does not adequately protect user data and has provided misleading or inaccurate information about its security practices to government agencies.”

Twitter declined immediate comment.
