In this video, we dive into a real-world Red Team vs. Blue Team scenario. We simulate a cyberattack on a Finance Application that has integrated a new LLM Chatbot. You'll see firsthand how attackers use Prompt Injection to bypass standard rules, how they move laterally through Kubernetes clusters, and how they attempt to execute Zero Day exploits. More importantly, we show you how to defend against it. Using Cisco's Hybrid Mesh Firewall, AI Defense, and Secure Workload, we demonstrate how to: 1. Detect & Block Prompt Injections: safeguarding your LLMs from manipulation. 2. Secure Kubernetes: using micro-segmentation to isolate threats in the cloud. 3. Inspect Encrypted Traffic: utilizing the Encrypted Visibility Engine (EVE) to spot malware in TLS flows without decryption. Whether you are a Network Engineer, Security Analyst, or just interested in how AI is changing the cybersecurity landscape, this demo is packed with practical insights Big thank you to Cisco for sponsoring my trip to Cisco Live Amsterdam. // Ant Ducker SOCIALS // LinkedIn: / ant-ducker-0052801 YouTube channel dCloud: / @ciscodcloud // Website REFERENCE // Cisco Security Cloud control: https://sign-on.security.cisco.com/ Cisco.com: https://www.cisco.com/site/us/en/solu... // YouTube Video REFERENCE // Rick Miles' video will be linked at a later stage once published. / David's SOCIAL // Discord: discord.com/invite/usKSyzb Twitter: www.twitter.com/davidbombal Instagram: www.instagram.com/davidbombal LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/davidbombal Facebook: www.facebook.com/davidbombal.co TikTok: tiktok.com/@davidbombal YouTube: / @davidbombal Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/3f6k6gE...

The bottleneck in AI isn't compute anymore, it's the network. In this video, I sit down with Martin, the architect behind Cisco's Silicon One, to discuss the massive leap to 100 Terabits per second. We go deep into the silicon level to understand how "intelligent agents" embedded in the hardware are solving the packet loss problem for massive AI training clusters. We cover the new 1.6T Linear Pluggable Optics (LPO), why Cisco is becoming the "Apple of Networking" by building their own full stack, and why they believe Ethernet has officially won the data center war. Topics Covered: • Cisco Silicon One: The architecture behind the 100Tbps & 51.2Tbps chips. • AI Scale: How to interconnect 128,000 GPUs without stalling. • Hardware Agents: Real-time traffic rerouting at the silicon level. • 1.6Tbps Optics: Moving DSPs out of the module to save power (LPO). • Ethernet vs. InfiniBand: Why standard Ethernet is winning in AI.

Big thanks to ‪@Cisco‬ for sponsoring this video and sponsoring my trip to Cisco Live Amsterdam. Will AI replace network engineers in 2026? In this video, I sit down with Joe Vaccaro (VP/GM of Cisco ThousandEyes) to reveal the truth about "Agentic Ops" and how it differs from traditional AIOps. We dive deep into the new "Digital Teammate" concept within ThousandEyes and demo exactly how AI agents can autonomously troubleshoot complex network outages (like DHCP and DNS failures) in seconds. Instead of taking your job, Joe explains how these agents act as a force multiplier for your career—handling the tedious "mean time to innocence" tasks so you can focus on architecture. If you are worried about the future of the CLI or manual troubleshooting, you need to see this demo. Key Topics Covered: • Cisco Agentic Ops Explained: Joe Vaccaro breaks down the shift to autonomous reasoning. • ThousandEyes Demo: Watch an AI agent diagnose a DHCP failure and suggest the exact fix (subnet expansion). • Views Explainability: How to troubleshoot "unknown paths" and ISP outages (like AWS/Azure) automatically. • Career Survival Guide: Why Cisco believes AI will train the next generation of CCIE-level engineers, not replace them. //Joe Vaccaro's SOCIAL // Cisco Blogs: https://blogs.cisco.com/author/vaccaroj LinkedIn: / joevaccaro X: https://x.com/joevaccaro X: https://x.com/thousandeyes Website: https://www.thousandeyes.com/ // David's SOCIAL // Discord: discord.com/invite/usKSyzb Twitter: www.twitter.com/davidbombal Instagram: www.instagram.com/davidbombal LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/davidbombal Facebook: www.facebook.com/davidbombal.co TikTok: tiktok.com/@davidbombal YouTube: / @davidbombal Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/3f6k6gE...

In this video David speaks to Peter Bailey (SVP and GM of Cisco's Security business). AI agents are moving fast inside enterprises, and CISOs are hitting the brakes for one reason: the attack surface is expanding at machine speed. In this interview, we break down how agentic AI changes security, why MCP servers and agent tool access create new risks, and what a zero trust approach looks like when the “user” is a non-deterministic agent. We cover real-world problems like shadow MCP servers, agents touching sensitive systems and PII, and why traditional perimeter controls and firewalls are not enough when traffic is encrypted and actions happen too quickly downstream. You'll also hear what Cisco is doing across the AI lifecycle: AI Defense for model scanning, provenance and guardrails, plus new protections focused on agent identity, dynamic authorization, behavior monitoring, and revocation. On the networking side, we discuss how SD-WAN and secure access (SASE) can add visibility and policy control for AI usage, including prioritizing latency-sensitive AI traffic while still enforcing security. If you're a security engineer, network engineer, or CISO trying to move from AI hype to safe deployment, this video gives you a practical mental model and the controls to start building now.

Is this the most powerful network switch ever built? In this interview from Cisco Live, we look at the new generation of Cisco 8000 and Nexus switches capable of routing 100 Terabits per second. We break down why AI data centers are forced to move from air cooling to liquid cooling, and how a single switch chassis can now handle the equivalent mobile traffic of 100 million people. AI models are growing faster than the infrastructure can keep up. To solve this, the network switch had to evolve. In this video, I talk to Will from Cisco about the engineering challenges of building the "G300" generation of switches, hardware so dense that air cooling is no longer enough. We discuss the massive architectural shift occurring in data centers, where Liquid Cooled Switches are becoming the new standard to support 1.6T Ethernet ports and massive GPU clusters. Key Hardware Topics: • The 100 Terabit Chassis: How Cisco architecture handles massive throughput. • Liquid Cooling: Why switches are adopting "direct-to-chip" cooling just like gaming rigs. • Scale-Out Networking: How these switches manage congestion for AI training jobs (Job Completion Time). • Career Insights: Will manages 5,000 engineers and explains why understanding the physical layer and hardware constraints is a superpower for modern developers.

In this interview, David Bombal sits down with Dr. Mike Pound (Computerphile) to clear up one of the biggest crypto misconceptions on the Internet: hashing is not encryption, and hash functions are not reversible. In this video you'll learn what a hash function actually does (a deterministic, fixed-length, “random-looking” summary of data) and why the whole point is that you cannot take a hash and reconstruct the original file. Dr Mike explains the key properties of secure hashing, including the avalanche effect (tiny input change, massive output change), and why older algorithms like MD5 and SHA-1 became unsafe due to collisions. We also cover what “collisions” really mean, why they must exist in theory (the pigeonhole principle) and why they can appear sooner than expected (the birthday paradox). Then we tackle the YouTube-comments classic: rainbow tables. If hashes are one-way, how do attackers “crack” passwords? The answer: they don't reverse hashes. They guess passwords, hash them forward, and match the results. Mike breaks down how rainbow tables speed this up with precomputed hashes, and why salting makes those precomputations far less effective by forcing attackers to redo work per user. Finally, we zoom out into modern cryptography: why SHA-2 is widely used today, why SHA-3 exists as a structurally different backup option, what length extension attacks are, and what quantum computing changes (and doesn't change) for hashing and encryption. We also touch on how hashes power digital signatures, file integrity checks (like verifying an ISO download), and why AES dominates symmetric encryption. // Mike's SOCIAL // X: / _mikepound // YouTube Video REFERENCE // SHA: Secure Hashing Algorithm: • SHA: Secure Hashing Algorithm - Computerphile Birthday Paradox: • Hash Collisions & The Birthday Paradox - C...

Big thanks to Cisco for sponsoring this video and sponsoring my trip to Cisco Partner Summit San Diego 2025. This video is a deep dive with Jeetu Patel on why the real AI revolution is happening in infrastructure and networking, not just in GPUs or chatbots. Jeetu explains that we are massively underestimating how much AI infrastructure the world will need. Power becomes the core constraint, GPUs are the core asset, and networking is the force multiplier that lets thousands of GPUs act as one system. He walks through how we went from models on a single GPU → 4–8 GPUs in a server → racks with hundreds of GPUs (like NVL-72 with 500+ GPUs) → clusters of racks, and now “scale across” between data centers when power and real estate are scattered across different regions. The conversation then shifts to edge AI and Cisco Unified Edge: instead of doing all token generation in big data centers, some inference and token generation must move to the edge (branches, factories, hospitals, stadiums, stores) where data is created. Jeetu explains why edge devices need to be plug-and-play, remotely managed, and integrate compute, networking, security and observability in a single platform. He also introduces the idea that AI is now constrained by three big bottlenecks: • Infrastructure • A trust deficit (people don't trust AI yet) • A data gap (models are mostly trained on human internet data, not on rich machine data) Jeetu explains how security becomes a prerequisite for productivity, not a trade-off, and describes Cisco's work with Splunk, open-sourced time-series models, and machine data (logs, metrics, traces) to close the data gap by correlating machine data with human-generated data for better insights. Globally, he talks about the “token generation race” – how every country now cares about having enough AI token generation capacity because it directly links to GDP and national security. He cites huge infrastructure build-outs with partners like G42 in the Middle East, at gigawatt and trillions-of-dollars scale. Finally, Jeetu tackles the “AI will take my job” fear. He outlines three stages of thinking: 1. “AI will take my job.” 2. “Someone who uses AI better will take my job.” 3. “Without AI, I won't be able to do my job.” His message to younger viewers: be excited, adopt AI as a companion, own your learning, and learn fast because AI compresses the time it takes to build skills. // Jeetu Patel's SOCIALS // LinkedIn: / jeetupatel Website: https://www.cisco.com/ X: https://x.com/jpatel41 // David's SOCIAL // Discord: discord.com/invite/usKSyzb Twitter: www.twitter.com/davidbombal Instagram: www.instagram.com/davidbombal LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/davidbombal Facebook: www.facebook.com/davidbombal.co TikTok: tiktok.com/@davidbombal YouTube: / @davidbombal Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/3f6k6gE...

Big thanks to Cisco for Sponsoring this video. For more information about the topic being discussed follow the following link: https://blogs.cisco.com/news/the-thir... Cisco's Martin Lund joins David Bombal to unpack how AI-scale networking really works - and why a 51.2 Tbps, 64×800G, post-quantum–ready router matters. We break down scale-up vs scale-out vs scale-across, deep buffers to prevent drops on long-haul links, line-rate IPsec/MACsec, SONiC vs IOS XR, P4 programmability, coherent optics for ~1000 km DCI, and how these pieces enable exabit-class fabrics for AI clusters. What you'll learn • Why GPUs are useless without massive, reliable interconnects • 51.2 Tbps with 64×800G ports and what that enables for AI training • Deep buffers vs shallow buffers and when each wins • Line-rate encryption today and post-quantum readiness tomorrow • SONiC on Cisco Silicon One, P4, and automation at hyperscale If you found this useful, hit subscribe and share with your favorite network nerd.

In this candid breakdown with OTW, we cut through the hype and show you what actually matters for learning pentesting in 2025: prioritising RAM over flashy GPUs, picking VMware (free for personal use) for reliable labs, using refurbs/minis/Raspberry Pi, and planning for where wireless hacking is going (Bluetooth/BLE/Zigbee) — not just Wi-Fi. We also cover AMD vs Intel vs Apple M-chips/ARM for Linux VMs, when cloud cracking makes sense, and why daily practice beats buying gadgets. Highlights: • Best beginner specs (RAM first, SSD nice, storage ≠ speed) • VMware vs VirtualBox for home labs • AMD/Intel vs Apple M-chips/ARM for Kali/Parrot VMs • Alpha adapters & aircrack-ng compatibility; Nordic nRF52 for BLE • Budget path: used/refurb, mini-PCs, Pi, phone/cloud labs (HTB/THM) • The 80/20 rule of hacking: skills are greater than gear If you're delaying until you can afford a $2 – 3k laptop, don't.

In this demo with David Bombal and Juniper Networks, you'll see AI that actually helps: a tunnel-free setup for faster failover and a natural-language chatbot that pinpoints the real issue, client, Wi-Fi, switch, WAN, or cloud—and auto-captures the packets you need. We also show simple security defaults (deny-by-default) and why double-encrypting traffic can slow you down. What you'll learn: Why “old-school VPN tunnels” add overhead—and how tunnel-free can speed things up How a chatbot (Marvis) finds root causes and triggers packet captures at the moment of failure Easy checks for Zoom/Teams quality (latency, jitter, loss) and what to do when it's not “the Wi-Fi” Off-hours synthetic tests that catch issues before your day starts Practical security: sensible defaults and where SASE fits if you want it // Justin Melloni's SOCIALS // LinkedIn: / justin-melloni-54b24a1b // Andre du Iuri SOCIALS // LinkedIn: / andre-de-iuri-578391210 // David's SOCIAL // Discord: discord.com/invite/usKSyzb Twitter: www.twitter.com/davidbombal Instagram: www.instagram.com/davidbombal LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/davidbombal Facebook: www.facebook.com/davidbombal.co TikTok: tiktok.com/@davidbombal YouTube: / @davidbombal Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/3f6k6gE...

Quantum computing isn't a far-off sci-fi threat. In a hybrid model (CPU + GPU + quantum), it could land within ~3 years—and that's enough to break today's asymmetric cryptography (RSA/ECC/PKI) used for TLS/HTTPS and VPN key exchange via Shor's algorithm. Result? Session keys exposed, mass decryption possible, and a risky “post-quantum gap” before new hardware/software are widely deployed. In this frank discussion, OTW joins David Bombal to explain: • Why asymmetric key exchange is the weak link for TLS/VPNs • How hybrid quantum + CUDA-Q accelerates timelines • Nation-states' “collect now, decrypt later” strategy • The painful window before post-quantum cryptography (PQC) rolls out • Risks of client-side scanning and on-device AI • NSA backdoors, PGP/Phil Zimmermann, and the San Bernardino iPhone case // Occupy The Web SOCIAL // X: / three_cube Website: https://hackers-arise.net/ // Occupy The Web Books // Linux Basics for Hackers 2nd Ed US: https://amzn.to/3TscpxY UK: https://amzn.to/45XaF7j Linux Basics for Hackers: US: https://amzn.to/3wqukgC UK: https://amzn.to/43PHFev Getting Started Becoming a Master Hacker US: https://amzn.to/4bmGqX2 UK: https://amzn.to/43JG2iA Network Basics for hackers: US: https://amzn.to/3yeYVyb UK: https://amzn.to/4aInbGK // OTW Discount // Use the code BOMBAL to get a 20% discount off anything from OTW's website: https://hackers-arise.net/ // Playlists REFERENCE // Linux Basics for Hackers: • Linux for Hackers Tutorial (And Free Courses) Mr Robot: • Hack like Mr Robot // WiFi, Bluetooth and ...

In this 2025 deep-dive, David Bombal sits down with John Hammond to map the real state of hacking: classic ransomware/infostealers meet AI-assisted malware (including code that leverages LLMs). We unpack the ClickFix and FileFix social-engineering patterns, fake CAPTCHA and “save/upload” flows that trick users into running payloads, and the practical Windows mitigations (policy/registry ideas) you should know. John shares why he estimates 20–30% of attacks now have some AI touch, how social engineering scales, and where defenders can push back. For your career, he argues opportunities are expanding: use CTFs, show your work on GitHub/video, and consider OSCP for signaling. He also introduces Just Hacking Training (JHT), handson hack-alongs, archived CTFs, free upskill challenges, and pay-what-you-want courses with industry all-stars.

In this ethical lab demo, David Bombal and Kyle Winters connect Claude (LLM) to Metasploit through an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server to automate real attacks. Watch AI perform recon, generate a risk report, and execute VSFTPD backdoor, EternalBlue (SMBv1), and UnrealIRCD—dropping benign files on Linux and Windows with simple prompts. Educational use only on intentionally vulnerable VMs. Do not attack systems you don't own or lack permission to test. What you'll see • How MCP bridges an AI to real tools (Metasploit RPC) • AI-driven scanning + auto security report (services, versions, risks) • Prompted exploits: VSFTPD, EternalBlue, UnrealIRCD • Why this lowers barriers for red teams—and what blue teams should do // Sponsored SEGMENT // Big thanks to Cisco for sponsoring this video. // Kyle Winters SOCIAL // LinkedIn: / kyle-m-winters Cisco Blogs:  https://blogs.cisco.com/author/kylewi... // Websites REFERENCE // MetasploitMCP by GH05TCREW: https://github.com/GH05TCREW/Metasplo...

Cybersecurity icon Mikko Hyppönen sits down with David Bombal at Black Hat to explain his bold move from antivirus to anti-drone defense after 34 years. He breaks down why mobile operating systems are the biggest security improvement of the past 15 years, how attackers have shifted from device exploits to human scams, and why he believes defenders currently have the edge with AI. They unpack the rise of fiber-tethered drones that evade RF detection, the coming reality of autonomous “killer robots” (not yet here—but inevitable), and the grim state of privacy as everyday IoT devices go online by default—his “internet asbestos” warning. Mikko also reflects on achieving keynote goals at DEF CON, RSA, and Black Hat, and shares career advice: set goals, don't drift. Topics: mobile OS security, social engineering, AI for defense, zero-day research, drone warfare, privacy and encryption policy, IoT risks, career pivot. // Mikko Hypponen's SOCIALS // X: https://x.com/mikko Website: https://mikko.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hypponen/... // Books REFERENCE // If it's smart it's vulnerable: US: https://amzn.to/41lkSaG UK: https://amzn.to/4oTpOgN // David's SOCIAL // Discord: discord.com/invite/usKSyzb Twitter: www.twitter.com/davidbombal Instagram: www.instagram.com/davidbombal LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/davidbombal Facebook: www.facebook.com/davidbombal.co TikTok: tiktok.com/@davidbombal YouTube: / @davidbombal Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/3f6k6gE...

Big thank you to Cisco for sponsoring this video and sponsoring my trip to Cisco Live San Diego. This video features David Bombal and Kyle Winters demonstrating practical cybersecurity techniques. Kyle walks through how to use Hydra to brute force SSH passwords, explaining the process of leveraging wordlists and optimizing the attack. Following the offensive demonstration, Kyle transitions into defensive measures, showing viewers how to quickly and easily set up an SSH honeypot using Cowrie. The honeypot serves as a decoy to attract and monitor malicious actors attempting to access a network. The demonstration includes setting up the honeypot on an Ubuntu host, configuring IP tables for port redirection, and monitoring logs for incoming connection attempts. The video highlights the importance of understanding both attack methods and defensive strategies in cybersecurity. Kyle also mentions free ethical hacking training resources available through Cisco Networking Academy (netacad.com) and future tutorials on Cisco U (u.cisco.com). // COMMANDS // Devices: client 192.168.1.10 server 192.168.1.11 ubuntu-honeypot 192.168.1.21 Nmap scan: nmap -sn 192.168.1.0/24 Verify Hydra installed: hydra -h Show wordlists: ls -al /usr/share/wordlists/ Crack with known username: hydra -l admin -P /usr/share/wordlists/top-passwords-shortlist.txt -t 4 -f ssh://192.168.1.11 Crack with unknown username: hydra -L /usr/share/wordlists/top-usernames-shortlist.txt -P /usr/share/wordlists/top-passwords-shortlist.txt -t 4 -f ssh://192.168.1.11 Create dir for Cowrie: mkdir cowrie cd cowrie/ Clone cowrie: git clone https://github.com/cowrie/cowrie .
