About Mehdi

Passionate about IT since my early age, I quickly developed a taste for the security field. I started my professional experience in cybersecurity within large groups before moving towards consulting firms.

Initially focused on implementing security solutions, I later developed my skills in penetration testing to assess the security levels of IT resources. With seven years of experience, I want to bring my expertise to my clients to audit their cyber defense capabilities and help them protect themselves against threats.

Education

  • Master of Information Security
    Pierre and Marie Curie University
    2015
    Le master est concentré sur la sécurité informatique couvrant de multiples domaines techniques, notamment les tests de pénétration, le reverse engineering, l'analyse de logs, les évaluations des risques, le forensique, le droit et l'éthique de l'Internet, la certification ISO, etc. Ayant prouvé mes capacités dans le domaine des tests d'intrusion, j'ai pu obtenir le titre de Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) en 2015. Deux ans d'apprentissage en tant qu'ingénieur en sécurité informatique chez Orange S.A., une entreprise de télécommunications de premier plan en France, m'ont donné l'opportunité pour commencer ma carrière de pentester par la suite.
