Hi, my name is

Mrigendra Soni.

Lets just say I hack things.

I’m a product security engineer specializing in pentesting web apps and networks, conducting cloud environment audits and local privilege escalation. Currently, I’m focused on securing the awesome products at Zendesk.

About Me

Hello! My name is Mrigendra and I enjoy hacking, or should I say pentesting. My interest in offensive security started back in 2017 when I stumbled across discord servers posing as Anonymous group, not that it worked out very well but eventually I came across HackTheBox where I was able to secure 49th position in India and 420th, internationally.

I have had the privilege of working at FireCompass , StoryXpress and Deriv . I'm currently working at Zendesk as a Product Security Engineer building security inclusive development processes, secured infrastructure and a safe experience for the customers at Zendesk. When I'm not working I like to Blog about my learnings.

I've completed a few certifications as well like eCPPTv2 by eLearSecurity and PACSP by Pentester Academy.

In my spare time, I enjoy writing scripts and building tools to automate processes. Here are a few technologies I’ve been working with recently:

  • Python
  • Solidity
  • Bash
  • Docker
  • Snyk
  • Burp Suite
  • Nessus
  • Wiz
