97. The God-Level Hacker: How One Founder Is Building the World's Most Powerful Offensive Cyber Tool (with Alexis Lingad)

from The Security Podcast of Silicon Valley · host YSecurity

A hacker who got kicked out of college for finding their vulnerabilities, became a national hacking champion, and is now building what he calls a sovereign-level cyber weapon. Alexis Lingad, founder of Kinosec, built an autonomous AI system that chains exploits across web, IoT, and physical infrastructure the same way a real attacker would, and he's already using it to sell AI pen testing to enterprise security teams. Tune in to hear how he's building the weapon before the bad guys do.  Alexis: www.linkedin.com/in/alexis-lingad Kinosec: www.kinosec.ai Jon: www.linkedin.com/in/jon-mclachlan Sasha: www.linkedin.com/in/aliaksandr-sinkevich YSecurity: www.ysecurity.io 🔒 Sponsored by YSecurity Closing a big deal and getting hit with a vendor questionnaire, SOC 2 request, or pen test requirement?
