Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGerman Namestnikov is a seasoned security expert with nine years of hands-on experience in offensive security, binary exploitation, and red teaming, currently leading the Security Assessment Department at Sberbank. He combines deep systems and network security knowledge—built from roles implementing VPN, BGP, IPSec, PAM modules and kernel tweaks—with practical penetration testing results against real-world applications. German has a track record of architecting perimeter defenses, deploying SIEM/HIDS/IDS stacks, and improving corporate security posture through tooling, automation and user-awareness programs. He is as comfortable writing Linux modules and kernel patches as he is exploiting stored XSS and SQLi to escalate privileges, reflecting a full-cycle attacker-defender perspective. Based in Moscow, he brings both research curiosity (“breaking stuff for fun and profit”) and enterprise-grade delivery, mentoring teams and publishing security guidance for broader audiences. A pragmatic problem-solver, he often bridges operational gaps by building lab environments and bespoke scripts to accelerate incident response and secure deployments.
