Syed Afzal — Product Engineer
I am a tinkerer, coder, and learner with a deep love for information security. I realized my love for computers at an early age and since then I've tried to explore diverse computing technologies from Front-end web development to back-end technologies. As a day job, I work with my development team. When I get some time in the office I love to go through security of Intranet applications. When I'm not in office, I devote time to in making and breaking web applications. This includes looking for vulnerabilities in web applications and responsibly reporting them. I love to play with web application firewalls and try to find ways to evade them. I frequently contribute WAF signatures to open source tools. Coding and creating tools on ideas that cross my mind. I love the feeling I get when I see an idea transforming into an application. Technologies I love working with: - Java, Struts Framework - Angular 4, HTML5, CSS3 - Typescript and JavaScript - Version Control - Git and Clearcase Web application security ( Identifying and exploiting OWASP top 10 security flaws, symlink bypass, etc.
