Well, if you’re at all familiar with digital design, you might recognize it looking a bit like a 90 degree turned gate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic_synthesis I think that played a part in the design. It also kinda reminds me of a transistor https://www.circuitspedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Transistor.jpg .

Kinda looks like a 2 lead LED to me.

Archived on the TWiT Wiki and I believe some of the oldest Security Now programs is confirmation that the logo is a modified AND gate.

Correct - it’s an And Gate turned sideways with an eye…
