In this thrilling episode of The Abhisek Cast, we explore the real-life world of physical penetration testing with one of the best in the field—FC aka Freakyclown, Cofounder of Cygenta Security.

From breaking into banks and data centers to sneaking past guards and security systems, FC shares what it takes to hack the physical world. He walks us through his early days in cybersecurity—before the internet as we know it—and explains why physical security is often the weakest link in an organization’s defense.

What makes this episode stand out is FC's ability to share deep insight through wild real-life stories—from bluffing his way into secure sites to planting covert devices inside phones.

We also talk about the founding of Cygenta, a company focused on holistic security: blending technical defenses, human behavior, and physical infrastructure into a single strategy.
