Jinay Patel is a Security Analyst based in Bengaluru with seven to eight years of hands-on experience across GRC, cloud security, and offensive security engineering. He has progressed from project-level roles at DRDO to senior security positions at Cognizant and Cloud Security Engineer work before his current role at OneAdvanced, blending audit/compliance expertise with practical vulnerability discovery. An active bug hunter and security researcher, he owns multiple CVEs and contributes to notable open-source tools like reconFTW, where he has enhanced scanning, XSS checks, and httpx integrations. Jinay pairs an M.Tech. in Communication Engineering with a pragmatic focus on automating reconnaissance and improving logging/cleanup workflows, making him equally comfortable in governance conversations and hands-on red-team tooling.
