Summary
Nicolas Lamoureux is a Senior Security Engineer based in Montreal with 11 years of hands-on offensive security experience focused on web applications, reverse engineering, malware analysis, and threat hunting. He leads a squad of pentesters at Latacora and has run red-team style assessments, code reviews, and client scoping engagements for major Canadian financial institutions. Nicolas combines deep low-level skills (x86/x64 reverse engineering and malware research) with practical application testing across macOS, Linux, and Windows, and he enjoys uncovering subtle web flaws—he even admits to having a fondness for finding XSS. A former teaching assistant and internship supervisor, he pairs technical mentorship with tool development and pragmatic security guidance. His background ranges from embedded systems programming to senior offensive roles, giving him a broad perspective on both development and attack surfaces.
