## Resource

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.
