#510: 20–30% Of Attacks Use AI: John Hammond details today’s hybrid attacks

To try everything Brilliant has to offer for free for a full 30 days, visit https://brilliant.org/davidbombal or scan the QR code onscreen – You’ll also get 20% off an annual premium subscription. 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. What you’ll learn: • How ClickFix/FileFix actually trick users • Realistic mitigation tactics you can apply • The current role of AI in malware • Career roadmap: CTFs → OSCP → portfolio • Where to get hands-on: JHT resources // John Hammond’s SOCIALS // YouTube: / @_johnhammond X: https://x.com/_johnhammond LinkedIn: / johnhammond010 Discord: / discord Instagram: / _johnhammond TikTok: / johnhammond010 GitHub: https://github.com/JohnHammond Humble Bundle: https://www.humblebundle.com/?partner...
