An interview with Gal Nagli, Head of Threat Exposure at Wiz, which was sold to Google for $32 billion. Nagli, 28, from Kiryat Haim, who was not accepted into Unit 8200 in the army, became one of the top five bug hunters in the world and earned over a million dollars from Bug Bounty. Today he leads Red Agent, an automated offensive AI agent that scans about 200,000 websites per week and finds thousands of critical vulnerabilities. Nagli explains how AI allows attackers to easily find vulnerabilities, but also gives an advantage to defenders who have access to internal information and context.
