About this listen

 The Exploit Archives is a cybersecurity podcast that dives deep into real-world vulnerabilities — and the exploits that took advantage of them. Each week, we unpack a specific flaw in the digital world: how it worked, what made it dangerous, and how attackers used it, from infamous zero-days and ransomware incidents to lesser-known bugs with serious impact. Whether you’re just starting out or already deep into cybersecurity, we decode each case with clarity, precision, and real-world context. Also available on YouTube. Discover. Decode.
