Here are 7 REAL 5-minute cybersecurity hacks everyone should know in 2026. Recorded live at Zero Trust World (ZTW26), David Bombal and a team of hackers demonstrate actual cyber attacks and how quickly your systems can be compromised. From forcing AI prompt injections to steal credentials, to hiding C2 servers in plain sight on a Steam profile, these are the real-world exploits threat actors are using right now. We're diving into the technical weeds to show you Windows LNK shortcut hijacking, Linux privilege escalation via sudo misconfigurations, and how to protect yourself from these exact attacks. // Guests’ SOCIAL // Alex Benton: Rename StickyKeys / alex-benton-b805065 Kenneth Walker: Everthing is a C2 / kenneth-walker-527595109 Jacob Meyer: Shortcut Hijack / jacob-meyer-165b8359 David Smith: Alternate Data Streams / david-smith-sudo-wrestler Karla Abarca: The validity of an application before execution / karlaabarcacyber Ramsey Shaban: Prompt Injection / ramsey-shaban-390335205 Tillman Hall Powershell Fake Logon / tillmanhall Rayton Li: Rooting Around Linux: Privilege Escalations / rayton-li Kieran Human: Network Hash Stealing / kieran-human-5495ab170 // ThreatLocker’s SOCIAL // LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thre...
