Mohamed Aziz Akrout

I am a junior cybersecurity analyst passionate about offensive security, Active Directory, and red teaming. I build, attack, and harden my own AD labs to practice enumeration, privilege escalation, and lateral movement.

My academic background in Network Security and hands-on projects — including a Cisco SD-WAN orchestration lab and advanced attack simulation — strengthened my routing, orchestration, and real-world offensive operations skills. I routinely use tools such as BloodHound, Impacket, Metasploit, and NetExec to discover and exploit misconfigurations.

I engineered a vulnerable AD lab that emulated enterprise misconfigurations and demonstrated full attack chains up to Domain Admin compromise, documenting actionable remediation to harden environments. I have practical experience evading defensive controls while performing reconnaissance, credential dumping, and lateral movement.

I seek roles where I can apply offensive techniques, improve defensive posture through evidence-based remediation, and grow in red teaming and network security operations while contributing technical rigor and hands-on problem solving.
