Freelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Zakaria
Hello! With 10 years of experience in cybersecurity (Offensive and Defensive), I help companies secure their applications and infrastructures with a pragmatic approach: security should protect your business without slowing down your developers.
I mainly focus on 3 areas:
- DevSecOps & Automation: Seamless integration of security tools (SAST, SCA, secrets management) directly into your software factories (Gitlab CI, Jenkins). Creation of custom rules (Semgrep, Python scripts) to reduce false positives.
- Security Audit & Pentest: Multi-language source code audits (C/C++, Java, Python, PHP, JS) and penetration testing of your Web applications to detect and fix vulnerabilities before they go into production.
- Training & Awareness: A natural educator, I train your development teams on best practices (OWASP, Secure by Design) and lead technical workshops.
Autonomous, transparent, and solution-oriented, I quickly adapt to your technical stack to provide you with concrete and actionable recommendations.
