Vahagn Israyelyan
Founder & lead security engineer
You’ll always know who is on your engagement. The findings and the report stay my responsibility.
I’ve been in offensive security since 2010, with hundreds of penetration tests and source code reviews for banks, telecoms, government organisations and large enterprises.
I’ve reported over 1,000 vulnerabilities through bug bounty platforms including HackerOne, Synack, Bugcrowd and Intigriti, with Hall of Fame recognition from major tech companies. I’m a member of the Synack Red Team and a Synack Olympian.
I’ve been on both sides of bug bounty: as a researcher and as a triager reviewing submissions on behalf of companies. I’ve also worked in application security within a product company, partnering closely with engineering teams to address security issues.
