Faizan Elahi, known as 4t7 in the cybersecurity community, has gained a reputation for his meticulous approach to bug hunting, achieving an impressive average of 11.45 points per bug. Transitioning from a math teacher to a full-time bug hunter, his journey was catalyzed by encouragement from his cousin and has significantly transformed his lifestyle. 4t7's hacking philosophy, inspired by the Hitman game series, emphasizes precision and patience, particularly in mastering injection attacks such as XSS, SQL, and prototype pollution, the latter being a vulnerability he believes is often underestimated. He is developing a tool called Reflector, which utilizes a Selenium-based browser to intelligently detect vulnerabilities in ways that proxy-based scanners might miss. While acknowledging the role of AI in the field, 4t7 argues that true hacking requires creativity and adaptability, qualities that AI lacks. His advice to aspiring hackers is to apply lab-learned skills in real-world applications, embrace duplicates as learning opportunities, and maintain a balanced approach to avoid burnout. Despite geographical challenges, he aspires to become an Application Security Engineer at Bugcrowd, driven by a commitment to precision and impact in cybersecurity.
