Senior🎓
Top SchoolHossein Asghari is a security-focused software engineer with eight years of experience blending vulnerability research, offensive security, and secure systems engineering. He develops tooling and frameworks in Python, Rust, and C++ and has hands-on expertise in fuzzing, reverse engineering, and exploit development across both application and system layers. His recent research at Carleton University produced a novel on-device dynamic analysis approach for packed Android apps using eBPF, Frida, and QBDI, making protected apps easier to analyze without full unpacking. Comfortable in embedded and cloud-native contexts, he has built secure firmware for TrustZone-M IoT devices and now brings that systems-level rigor to his software engineering work at Cisco. Colleagues value his ability to bridge academic research and practical tooling to improve real-world resilience.
