Hello,Who am i?

My name is Dmitry,

Nice to meet you! :)

I have been working in the IT field with a focus on cyber security for more than 12 years. My main interest was to explore and to provide advice for helping individuals, startups and companies to build secure products and services.

In the past, I have been working in multiple companies by doing game/mobile application development, developing and performing security assessment of applications, protecting and defending companies cloud infrastructure from cyber-attacks, doing digital forensics and incident response, presenting in cyber security conferences, creating and doing security trainings.

I have participated in multiple security competitions, study BS Computer Science and OSCP certification.

While I am not working, learning, reading and securing something, I like to do sport activities, such as frisbee, and cycling.
