Umang Sarswat
@umangsarswat
I’m a red team operator who exposes identity and Tier-0 compromise paths to drive measurable defenses.
What I'm looking for
I’m an adversary simulation operator and red team/security consultant with 6+ years breaking enterprise defenses, specializing in Active Directory attack path exploitation and C2-driven threat emulation across Windows AD environments (5,000–20,000+ identities). I hold OSCP, CRTE, and CRTO, and I focus on AD CS abuse (ESC1–ESC8), Kerberos/NTLM/RBCD attack chains, and end-to-end red team lifecycle operations with Cobalt Strike and Sliver.
Every engagement ends with SOC detection coverage analysis, blue team knowledge transfer, and validated remediation sign-off. I consistently uncover domain-level compromise paths that client tooling and SOC detections miss, then translate complex multi-stage attack chains into CISO-level risk narratives and prioritized remediation roadmaps—while actively building Azure AD / Entra ID and hybrid identity red team capability (AZ-900 → AZ-500 in progress).
