My Journey into Android Security Research My path to becoming an Android security researcher was not a conventional one. I have been working as a security researcher for the past two years, focusing primarily on Android application defense, attack vectors, and vulnerability research. My role at Cyfinoid Private Limited involves identifying security flaws, developing training modules, and creating challenge applications to help developers and hackers understand Android security.
One of the defining moments in my journey was discovering and reporting a critical business logic bug on the Yubico website, which led to recognition and a reward.
I have been an active participant in the crypto space since August 2017 and I consider myself to be pretty tech-savvy. However, I have been shocked every time I’ve fallen victim to a phishing scam. Unfortunately, it has happened to me three times now.
The first time I was phished, I had just opened a new wallet and gave away my seed phrase to a scam website. I was new to the space and didn’t know any better, so I thought it was okay.
Last year I read an article, “Someone added ‘googling’ as a skill on CV, landed an interview. See viral tweet “. After reading the article and following the original writer’s tweet on Twitter, I saw mixed reaction’s from the Twitter community. Some were praising it, on the other hand; some criticising it.
Recently, a friend asked me to make a resume for them as they come from a commerce background and are fresher; I struggled to fill the space in a single-page resume based on their information.
