Today's episode is hosted by James Maude. He is joined by Patrick Hynds and Duane Laflotte, CEO and CTO, respectively, of Pulsar Security. Tune-in as Patrick and Duane discuss their journey from the early days of hacking to leading offensive security teams and advising enterprises on defense strategies. They take us through an inside look at unconventional hacking techniques including compromising networks by exploiting default credentials on printers and manipulating thermostats to damage infrastructure. Patrick and Duane also detail social engineering tactics like sending spoofed emails from compromised printers to hack their way into networks. They share perspectives on the evolution of cyber threats over 20+ years, the importance of patch management, and mentoring the next generation of ethical hackers.
