About Vinnie

I am a senior penetration tester and offensive security consultant based in Belgium with over ten years of experience in performing penetration tests on web applications, mobile applications, APIs, and cloud environments. Throughout my career, I have conducted hundreds of security assessments for companies in Europe and the United States, including extensive test projects for one of the world's largest cloud providers and security assignments for organizations in the financial sector.

I hold OSCP, OSCE, and CEH certifications and specialize in identifying vulnerabilities and improving the overall security posture of organizations. Through Pentahub, I offer freelance penetration testing services with a structured approach, starting with a scoping phase to thoroughly understand your environment, objectives, and priorities.

Each assignment includes a detailed test plan describing the test methodology and techniques used. During the project, I ensure clear communication and daily status updates, so your team always has insight into the testing progress.

Upon completion of the test, you will receive a comprehensive assessment report with all findings, technical details, and concrete recommendations for remediation, followed by a debriefing meeting where the results and key insights are discussed with your team. If desired, a retest can be performed to validate the resolved vulnerabilities.
