Hi all and welcome to my website. My name is Vlad and I am currently working in the cybersecurity field as a freelance penetration tester and bug bounty hunter whilst also being employed full time as a Virtualization & Automation Technical Specialist.
I have created my social media presence because I would like to give back to the community as I’ve had the pleasure of working with and being taught by some of the most talented people in the business.
I hope you will find useful content here and please know that I am always open to suggestions. You can contact me directly via any of the available channels or join my discord server here.

I started in 2014 as a hardware maintenance guy but always felt I wanted more. After settling in and learning as much as I could, I have pursued my first “technical” job in 2015 as a Capacity Analyst where my role would imply analysing server utilization trends and making sure no capacity issues would arise within the next 3 months. After a quick 6 months, I have been promoted to an Infrastructure Engineer role where I would finally get a taste of the more technical aspects of the job. Whilst a bit frustrating at first, as most things are when you are just starting out, this motivated me to level up and become self-sufficient pretty quickly. In just a year, I have emerged victorious from my knowledge pursuit and I was being recognized as one of the most valuable members of the team.
I would continue there for a total of 2 years before deciding I needed to challenge myself once more. Around that time a new opportunity would present itself which, if taken, would help satisfy my thirst for knowledge for the upcoming years and build a better technical mind in the process. Needless to say, I took it and I am still there today - learning new things and keeping myself busy.
Lately, I have also taken a keen interest in the cybersecurity field after attending a hacking conference that showed me what the next step would look like. What started out as a curiosity continues now as a passion.
Join me as I begin my hacking adventures.
