About me

I'm a Security Engineer and Ethical Hacker based in Dubai, UAE, specializing in penetration testing, security engineering, and AI-driven security solutions. With hands-on experience across web applications, networks, and enterprise systems, I excel at identifying and mitigating vulnerabilities using industry-standard tools including Burp Suite, Nmap, Nessus, Splunk, and BloodHound.

My experience spans incident response, threat hunting, SIEM monitoring, and compliance reporting (ISO 27001, PCI DSS). As a former Co-Founder/CTO, I combine technical expertise with leadership and innovative problem-solving to deliver comprehensive security solutions.
