In this episode, Alex sits down with the brilliant Mike Hart, a data scientist whose mission is to outsmart the sneaky world of typosquatting attacks. Just in time for the holiday shopping frenzy, we explore how his open-source project leverages LLMs to safeguard users from clicking on malicious look-alike links.

With online holiday shopping being a prime target for this attack vector, the risks of not double-checking URLs are bigger than ever. Organizations, especially those operating in hybrid environments, need to stay vigilant.

Mike blesses us with how his LLM (available to deploy and use from Hugging Face) automates detection, saves precious time, and fights back against a landscape where vendors often prioritize profit over protection.
