He did texhnically end up in cybersecurity, but basically yeah, a role that involves almost zero actual technical skill.

He did social engineering, aka, worming his way into people’s emails and texts and social circles, sending fake ‘your account has been comprimised, send me your user name and password to fix’ type shit.

Ironically, social engineering is quite a fitting uh, subclass, for a low technical skill, high charisma narcissist to slot into.

He thought hacking and DEFCON was the coolest convention to go to, so him and some buddies… won the scavenger hunt badge, I believe thats more or less running around the Con with your network analyzer open on your phone, to find wifi/bluetooth enabled hidden scavenger hunt items, maybe with a couple extra steps.

Its literally a gimmick badge, its not really anything to do with actual pentesting, nothing like developing a totally novel exploit.
