About

I didn't begin my career in security. I began it as an Android Developer, building the very apps I now protect. That experience taught me a fundamental truth: the most resilient security isn't bolted on; it's built-in. This 'developer-first' perspective is the core of my philosophy, where I strive to make the secure path the easiest path for engineering teams. This philosophy culminated in the creation of MORF, an open-source Mobile Reconnaissance Framework. Identifying a critical gap in our CI/CD pipeline for preventing secret leakage, I developed MORF to automate and strengthen our defenses. The ultimate validation of this work was being invited to present MORF to the global security community at both BlackHat Arsenal Asia and BlackHat Arsenal US. As the Lead for Mobile Security at CRED, I channel this passion into practice daily. I am part of a dedicated Mobile Security Research team , where I collaborate closely with developers to embed security into the product lifecycle and innovate our security automation to tackle the latest threats. My goal is to keep pushing the boundaries of mobile app security, DevSecOps, and security automation. I believe in the power of sharing knowledge and am always eager to connect with fellow professionals passionate about building a safer digital future. Sharing knowledge is an integral part of my work ethos. I've led numerous training sessions, presentations, and workshops, including: 1. A talk on WebView and Android applications at the Null Community Event. bit.ly/3oxWGlc 2. A workshop on Pentesting Android apps using Frida. bit.ly/3OMV8y7 3. Hacking Android, iOS, and IoT apps by Example - Workshop | THREAT CON 2023. https://bit.ly/3tgvxVA 4. Nullcon Security Conference & Training 2023. https://bit.ly/3PT9yx4 I am currently focused on the critical intersection of AI and Product Security — both in leveraging AI for advanced threat detection and in pioneering the methods to secure generative AI systems against emerging threats.
