Summary
Dejan L is a Senior Software Engineer from Slovenia with 12 years of hands-on experience in low-level systems, security and reverse engineering, specializing in C/C++, ARM assembly and Qt. He has built kernel-mode drivers and user-mode hooks at Symantec, led security research and malware analysis as CEO of Protean Security, and currently applies his expertise at Raven.io. Dejan combines deep platform knowledge (Linux/Gentoo, FreeBSD, TCP/IP) with practical fuzzing and binary analysis skills across x86, ARM and MIPS, often bypassing anti-analysis techniques to produce actionable reports for customers. Beyond code, he has written accessible infosec content and designed C/C++ tooling for PE/AuthentiCode parsing and system-wide hooks, reflecting a rare blend of engineering rigor and adversarial thinking. An under-the-radar strength is his long-term habit of bridging embedded/assembly work with high-level scripting (Python, Perl, Django) to automate complex security workflows.
