WHO I AM
ABOUT ME
I am Karthik S Sathyan, a seasoned cybersecurity specialist with over 2+ years of experience in vulnerability research, penetration testing, and responsible disclosure. My passion lies in discovering and helping fix security vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by malicious actors. Throughout my career, I've worked with organizations of all sizes, from startups to Big companies, helping them strengthen their security posture through meticulous assessment and practical recommendations.
My Approach to Security
My approach to security combines technical expertise with a deep understanding of how real attackers think and operate. I believe that effective security isn't just about finding vulnerabilities—it's about understanding the full context of how these weaknesses could be exploited in the real world. This perspective allows me to provide not just technical findings, but actionable insights that help organizations truly improve their security posture.
