Hi, I'm Abdullah! Red Team Consultant @ Google | MS in Cybersecurity @ NYU

I’m a Red Team Consultant at Google and a Cybersecurity Master’s student at NYU, passionate about adversary simulation, malware development, and physical/social engineering operations.

Professionally, I lead assumed breach engagements, design custom phishing campaigns, and conduct physical security assessments of enterprise facilities. I also develop custom security tools, research covert C2 channels, and regularly present critical risks and remediation strategies directly to CISOs and executive leadership.

I hold industry-recognized certifications including Certified Red Team Operator (CRTO), Certified Red Team Lead (CRTL), CompTIA Security+, and VHL Advanced+ (with OSCP currently in progress). Additionally, I have completed advanced offensive training programs such as MalDev Academy, Windows Internals, Offensive Azure, and Evilginx Mastery.

In my spare time, I conduct independent cybersecurity research, build and evaluate autonomous red teaming agents (see RedAI Paper), and analyze vulnerabilities in Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and embedded devices.

Here are some tools I'm actively developing to share with the security community! Check out my GitHub to see my past work.

Writing & Presentation Samples

While interning at WithSecure, my mentor tasked me with producing professional, client-grade engagement deliverables for a mock web application assessment. I have included them below for your viewing. Enjoy!
