OSCP-certified penetration tester. Manual web app, API, network and cloud pentesting for SOC 2, PCI DSS and HIPAA audits, with a report your developers can actually fix from and a free retest after you patch. Most security reports end up in a drawer. Mine don't, because your developers can read them, understand what's broken, and fix it. I have been hunting real vulnerabilities since 2018, first through bug bounty programs on HackerOne and Bugcrowd, then testing web apps, APIs, mobile apps and networks across the financial and healthcare sectors. What I care about is the same thing your future attacker cares about: the flaw a scanner skips right past. That is the difference between what I do and an automated tool. Scanners are great at noise. I am here for the findings that actually matter, the ones an attacker could chain together into a breach, and I show you exactly how, step by step. WHAT I TEST 🔍 Web Application Penetration Testing OWASP Top 10 and beyond: authentication and session flaws, IDOR and broken access control, SSRF, RCE, injection, file upload abuse, and the business logic bugs no scanner understands. 🔌 API Penetration Testing REST and GraphQL, JWT and OAuth flows, BOLA and BFLA, rate limiting and abuse cases, and the undocumented endpoints your team forgot to lock down. 🖧 Network Penetration Testing Internal and external, Active Directory, privilege escalation, lateral movement, and the exposed services that should never have been reachable. 📱 Mobile Application Penetration Testing Android and iOS, static and dynamic analysis, insecure storage, certificate pinning bypass, and the backend APIs behind the app. ☁️ Cloud Security Assessment AWS, Azure and GCP configuration and IAM review, Docker and Kubernetes security, and the cloud paths that turn a small bug into full account takeover. 🌐 Asset Discovery and OSINT Subdomains, exposed services, public facing assets, leaked credentials, and what attackers already know about you. COMPLIANCE AND AUDIT SUPPORT If you have a SOC 2 Type II audit, a PCI DSS assessment, a HIPAA security review, or an enterprise customer security questionnaire on your calendar, I scope the test so it satisfies the requirement and hand you evidence your auditor accepts. I work to OWASP, NIST CSF, PTES and OSSTMM methodology, and I have delivered this work in the financial and healthcare sectors. WHAT YOU GET 📑 A report you can act on. Clear reproduction steps, full request and response data, annotated proof of concept screenshots, CVSS ratings, and a plain English explanation of what each finding means for your business. No 200 page scanner dump. 🛠️ Remediation guidance. Practical fixes your engineers and your decision makers can both follow. You will know what to fix, why, and in what order. 🔁 A free retest. After you patch, I test again at no extra cost to confirm the fixes hold and no new paths opened. 📄 An executive summary written for the people who sign off, not just the people who code. TOOLS Burp Suite Pro, Nessus, Nmap, Metasploit, SQLMap, OWASP ZAP, MobSF, Frida, Wireshark, Kali Linux, and custom scripts I have written over years of engagements. Tools find the noise. The findings that matter come from manual work. HOW I WORK 1. Scoping call. We agree on targets, approach (black box, grey box or white box), rules of engagement and timeline. 2. Recon and mapping. I map your real attack surface before I touch anything. 3. Manual testing and exploitation. Automated scans for coverage, hands on testing for the findings that count. 4. Validated findings. I safely confirm every issue and rate real business impact, not theoretical severity. 5. Report and walkthrough. You get the document, plus a call to talk your team through it. 6. Retest. Free, once you have patched. BACKGROUND OSCP (Offensive Security Certified Professional), Certified AppSec Practitioner, and Rapid7 InsightVM Certified Administrator. Former Security Analyst at Dig8Labs, where I served as resident engineer at a major bank, leading vulnerability remediation across infrastructure and applications. Bug bounty hunter on HackerOne and Bugcrowd since 2018. First time commissioning a pentest? Send me a message with a couple of lines about your project. I will help you scope it properly, tell you honestly whether and how I can help, and give you a fixed price before you commit to anything.
