ZC002 (ZC002) | Cantina

I am a OSWE certified SR with an experience of over 8 years in the general Cyber Security industry with the past 3 of these years focused on Web3. I am a CS graduate from the one of the most selective colleges of my country.

My Final Semester Project focused on creating a decentralized content marketplace that involved sophisticated encryption techniques and smart contracts to show partial previews of content before the complete payment is made.

I have spoken in conferences such as Blackhat on topics such as Web3 Security. As a freelance consultant, I have audited over 40+ different web3 protocols. These protocols include Defi lending protocols, staking platforms and NFT marketplaces.

Recently, I secured the largest bug bounty in Cantina's history in a Defi Lending protocol. The bug was awarded 50,000 USDC.
