7MS #473: Interview with Nikhil Mittal

Hey everybody! Today Joe and I sat down with Nikhil Mittal of Pentester Academy and Altered Security to talk about a whole slew of fun security topics:

  • How Nikhil first got involved in Pentester Academy

  • Nikhil's hacker origin story

  • How does Nikhil feel about his tools being used by baddies?

  • What security tools/defenses would be good for SMBs to focus on?

  • Active Directory security - is all hope lost?

  • Will AI, ML, Terminator robots, etc. replace all of us who do pentesting for a living?
