Yannick Atabong

I am a results-driven Security Engineer with a solid background in Electrical and Electronics Engineering and over three years of experience in penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and DevSecOps. My journey in cybersecurity has equipped me with the skills to secure modern, cloud-native applications, automate security pipelines, and mitigate risks in development workflows. I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to contribute to a dynamic organization’s security initiatives.

In my current role as a Security Researcher at HackerOne, I conduct comprehensive security assessments, utilizing tools like Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP, and Metasploit to identify critical vulnerabilities. I have developed custom security testing tools that increased efficiency by 30% and integrated security tools into CI/CD pipelines to automate vulnerability management. My previous experience as a Junior Penetration Tester allowed me to hone my skills in cryptography and web exploitation, leading to a significant reduction in system vulnerabilities.
