Cyber Unbound

“If you build it but don’t sell it, it has no value.” @CredShields founder @cyberboyIndia on winning a crowded market, and why AI pentesting still needs humans: AI scales platforms, not services.

The old @Cyber_Unbound was clunky, so we rebuilt it from scratch. Meet the team behind it.

One bot’s creds gave @CredShields founder @cyberboyIndia access to a top 5 blockchain company’s prod deployments and server kill controls. “These things keep coming. Just another day.” Full episode: youtu.be/EgDWfY3Vik4?si=Ms0r…

Our launch film told one story. Thousands of engineers are still unseen, and thousands of teams are still searching. So we built @Cyber_Unbound : AI talent search for companies, real-world vetting for engineers. The platform in under a minute: cyberunbound.com #CyberSecurity #TalentAqusition #HRTech #CybersecurityJobs #CyberUnbound

New Cyber Unbound Podcast episode is out. Shashank started hacking at 14. Now @CredShields protects $10B+ in assets. He left a bug bounty career that paid more than a job. Why? “A personal goal.” Full episode: youtu.be/EgDWfY3Vik4

@SafeCRQ hired 12 threat intelligence interns through @Cyber_Unbound under a week. Vetted profiles same day. Interviews, assignments, evaluation, selection: all in 7 days. That's what a vetted talent pool does. Thanks to Mr. @rahultyagihacks & @SafeCRQ team. Hiring security talent? cyberunbound.com

We recreated The Social Network for our launch. Except the kid isn't building Facebook. He's facing an "entry level" security job wanting 5 years of experience and a CISSP. On Cyber Unbound, engineers prove skills live and get hired in under a week. cyberunbound.com/

Cybersecurity doesn't have a talent shortage. It has a barrier problem. Not anti-certification. Skilled talent should get hired, certified or not. That's @Cyber_Unbound : hands-on vetting challenges, and companies search vetted engineers directly. From our @bsidesahmedabad panel with Ms. @ich_rish99, Mr. @Dinosn , Mr. Ansh Bhawani and Mr. Prabh Nair. Something big ships this week. #CyberUnbound #CybersecurityHiring

Yes, Cyber Unbound is indeed a Leader in Cybersecurity Talent Acquisition. Honoured to receive this award at BSides Ahmedabad 2026 from Mr. Anirban Mukherji. Thank you, Nikhil sir & team!

Ghost in the Ledger is done. We set out to run a CTF for Mumbai. It ended up international. 350+ teams. 47+ cities. 5+ countries. 278 teams in the qualifier. The top three finished seconds apart. 40 finalists flew in from 10+ cities to IIT Bombay. Built to resist AI harnesses. It held. The flags came out of people, not models. On stage: Mr. Nikhil Srivastava on why AI is killing bug bounty as a career, Mr. Nitin Bhatnagar on what really happens in this industry, and Ms. Rishika Desai on threat intel.
