Summary
🤩
RockstarMario Rodriguez Lopez is a computer scientist and final-year Computer Science and Mathematics student at the University of Granada with four years of hands-on engineering experience focused on cloud security and backend development. He contributes to prominent open-source tooling such as prowler-cloud/prowler, adding checks and fixes across AWS services (ACM, EC2, VPC, ECS, IAM) and addressing vulnerabilities to strengthen auditability and compliance. Based in Granada, Spain, he blends academic rigor with practical security craftsmanship, favoring defensive automation and evidence-driven hardening. Less obvious: he’s comfortable navigating both high-level compliance frameworks and low-level implementation details, turning policy requirements into concrete, testable checks.
