In this episode of WE'RE IN, Josh Mason sits down with SRT member Austin, a rising star on the Synack Red Team. Austin shares his hacker origin story and pulls back the curtain on what it takes to break into elite researcher programs. He also deep-dives into his recent "heavy hitter" win: using a JSON Web Token inspection to completely demolish the authorization schema of a U.S. financial services platform, gaining full administrative control.
