Senior🎓
Top SchoolLuiz Nakazone is a Cyber Defense Specialist based in São Paulo with over a decade of experience protecting critical corporate environments through CSIRT operations, DFIR, threat intelligence and red/blue team activities. At PRODESP he leads incident response, digital forensics and XDR/NDR/EDR/SIEM operations, bringing hands-on expertise with IBM z platforms alongside modern detection stacks. He pairs offensive security skills and ethical hacking with vulnerability analysis mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, NIST and OWASP frameworks to drive pragmatic mitigation strategies. Luiz’s background as a mainframe analyst gives him uncommon visibility into securing legacy zSystems and Linux on IBM z, a niche often overlooked in mainstream cyber defense. He is active in the hands-on learning community (PentesterLab, TryHackMe, LetsDefend) and blends practical tooling knowledge with leadership in coordinated incident investigations. Outside work he pursues retro gaming and homebrew development, reflecting a lifelong appetite for low-level systems and creative problem solving.
