Chi Tran is a cybersecurity leader with 11 years of experience, currently heading the Cyber Security Department at VinSOC and lecturing in cybersecurity topics at Vietnamese universities. He researches vulnerabilities and adversarial risks across frontier technologies — AI/ML pipelines, autonomous robotics, and spaceborne systems — and translates that research into threat models, red-team simulations, and defensive frameworks. Previously he led a research team at ISPRAS (Russian Academy of Sciences) focused on advanced program analysis, static analysis, fuzzing, and data-flow tools to improve software reliability. Chi holds a PhD in Mathematics and Computer Science from MIPT and an engineering degree in software from Tomsk Polytechnic, blending deep theoretical grounding with practical tool-building. He is known for bridging academic rigor and operational security, often surfacing non-obvious system-level attack vectors in intelligent platforms. Based in Ho Chi Minh City, he combines hands-on technical leadership with teaching to cultivate the next generation of security practitioners.
