@maimoharris
Lead VAPT Engineer at Cyenetic Solutions LTD, where I uncovered a critical authorization flaw that prompted a client-wide security review.
What I'm looking for
At Cyenetic Solutions LTD, I lead VAPT delivery for enterprise clients, from engagement scoping and testing through client reporting. I uncovered a critical Broken Access Control flaw in privileged endpoints, prompting a client-wide review and mandatory authorization testing.
At Skye8, I tested API, web, and mobile targets and led authorized red team engagements. I used BloodHound to uncover a privilege-escalation path to Domain Admin that remediation closed and a later retest confirmed.
At IZZY Tech, I conducted vulnerability assessments and penetration tests, including finding a critical IDOR in an invoicing API that exposed customer financial data and personal information. The issue was fixed within five days, and expanded checks caught two more authorization issues before release.
As a part-time bug bounty researcher, I’ve disclosed critical vulnerabilities across more than 100 programs. I also built Reac2Shell, a proof-of-concept exploit and scanner, and founded HR-Tech, where I independently built DocConvert and DevSecKit.
