About
Security Engineer at Cybereason.
Core security team at Bitdefender. Endpoint protection, threat detection, and vulnerability research in native code.
Currently Security Researcher at Adevar Labs, a boutique web3 security firm specializing in smart contract audits, fuzzing, and operational security.
B.S. in Computer Science. M.S. in Cybersecurity.
Adevar provides opsec audits covering multisig operations, treasury, incident response, DevOps, and identity controls. The firm has an accreditation agreement with Security Alliance (SEAL) and is listed as a certification partner undergoing accreditation to deliver SEAL Certifications. That is a provider pathway, not a claim that every SEAL module is already held.
Primary focus on Solana program security: analyzing runtime behavior, account validation logic, cross-program invocation patterns, and economic assumptions in on-chain protocols. Secondary work on Ethereum and EVM-compatible chains.
Approach combines manual code review with property-based analysis: identifying invariants that programs must uphold, then testing whether those hold under adversarial conditions or uncommon execution paths.
Research areas include CPI security, PDA derivation correctness, signer authority validation, account discriminator handling, and economic attack surfaces in DeFi primitives.
