KinoSec.ai

We're building something for hackers who want to fight back. Not a course. Not a certification. A weapon. AI-powered attacks are hitting companies every single day. Most don't even know it happened. The people who can stop it are out there — they just don't have the right tool yet. That's what we've been building. If you're a hacker who gives a damn about what's coming — stay tuned for what's coming in the next few days.

How did a black-box pentesting platform score higher than tools with full access to the source code? We hacked our way in. Our agent found an exploit that exposed the source code — then used it to solve challenges that were designed for white-box tools. Read that again. We didn't need the code to be handed to us. We stole it. The way an actual attacker would. That's the difference between a scanner and a hacker. A scanner checks what it's told to check. A hacker finds a way. KinoSec found a way. #1 overall. 104 challenges. Above every AI platform. Above every human pentester — including a principal-level red teamer with 20+ years of experience.

introducing @KinoSecOfficial they are building the Palantir of offensive cyber operations
 phase 1: zeus, replaces slow and manual penetration testing with fully autonomous hacking. zeus is currently ranked as the best autonomous hacker in the world across multiple industry benchmarks
 phase 2: extends their capabilities into drones, IoT, and critical infrastructure defence
 phase 3: unifies it all

Grateful to be part of the team behind this video ad shoot for @KinoSecOfficial , through @theresidency Tech shoots always hit different — clean visuals, sharp ideas, and brands building for the future. Excited to keep creating more work in the startup and AI space.#AIVideo #fyp

Super excited with this massive video launch for @KinoSecOfficial !

CISA just added four more vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and they are already being used in real attacks. What makes this more concerning is the speed of exploitation versus the speed of response.

One of the largest security providers in the world was breached. ADT confirmed unauthorized access to customer data after the ShinyHunters group claimed up to 10 million records. Question is: how long someone’s been sitting inside your environment without you knowing? #KinoSec

We accidentally created a SkyNet-level threat in our @KinoSecOfficial lab. We pushed a major update to our autonomous pentesting engine - and it started doing things we didn't expect. Chaining attack paths, finding vulnerabilities across the full external attack surface, improvising exploit sequences that even hundreds of hackers in the community didn't anticipate. It might be 10x more dangerous than a Mythos-level threat. So our advisors told us: don't do a public launch for this version. Release it only to organizations that will use this power responsibly and not to accelerate AI Doomsday. We're calling this: "Project: Anti-SkyNet" A controlled access program to defend the world against the growing threat of swarm of AI hacker agents. The following organizations can apply: → Defense and government agencies of allied nations of US → Enterprises dealing with national-level cyber threats → Security teams responsible for protecting critical infrastructure We're accepting a limited number of organizations into the first cohort. Apply now by emailing your intent of use to: anti-skynet@kinosec.com The AI hackers are already here. We built one. Now we're using it to protect you. Credits to @Scobleizer Scoble for the video mention!

Modern Problems require modern solutions. The organizations that come out stronger are the ones that detect faster, respond better, and communicate transparently. #Kinosec #Cybersecurity #technology

Every origin story needs a team. KinoSec.ai's looks like this. Arne Steemers (COO): the "force of nature". Sales, GTM, ops, partnerships. Every company we help hack themselves before the bad guys do, it's because Arne got us in the room first. Quoc Giza Nguyen (CTO): the "architect". He doesn't just ship code. He builds systems Fortune 500 CISOs trust to run in production. Every time I break something new, he's the one who turns it into a weapon a customer can actually wield. Me (CEO) — the "hacker". I lead the charge on one obsession: making KinoSec the #1 autonomous pentester in the world, black-box category. Nothing short of that matters. The Residency SF. From here, we build the thing. When the next cyber doomsday hits, we want to be the reason it fails.

How many companies have exposed API keys? Too many to mention right? Most of these exposures were discovered EXTERNALLY (Attackers, researchers, scanners, etc.,) What’s your current approach to preventing API key exposure at scale? #Kinosec #Cybersecurity #Technology

Cybersecurity in modern times includes a few hard truths we must admit: Attackers are moving faster than ever Detection often comes AFTER exposure, not before Modern problems require modern solutions. #Kinosec

Assume. Audit. Rotate. Repeat

A recent BBC report reveals that a highly advanced AI cyber capability may have already leaked into the hands of a small, unauthorized group. In AI-driven attacks, LATER = BREACHED. Because the question isn’t: “Are we secure?” It’s: “How long until we’re not?” #KinoSec

On Sunday it was Vercel, yesterday it was Lovable. Even major companies are getting hacked. The gap between how fast people are shipping code and how much they are testing is becoming huge. A new era of AI-driven cyber threats is here. You will feel it if you aren't ready.
