Hi
With a solid foundation in application security, and full-stack development, paired with hands-on experience at industry leaders like RecordedFuture and SecurityTrails, I am confident in my ability to contribute meaningfully to your security team.

At RecordedFuture, I currently develop and automate internal tools to enhance vulnerability detection. I specialize in converting raw technical data from disclosed CVEs into actionable intelligence, often innovating ways to identify threats even when technical details are scarce. My role includes assessing CVSS scores, writing detection rules, and collaborating closely with threat intel and research teams to build cohesive detection strategies.

Previously, I served as a Web Developer at SecurityTrails, where I worked on performance optimization, browser extensions, and server scripting with a strong focus on cybersecurity marketing. My earlier experience at Xlpat Labs helped me develop and deploy patent analysis tools and manage production environments—giving me a unique blend of dev and ops perspective with a security mindset.

Beyond corporate roles, I have contributed as a Freelance Security Researcher with Inspectiv, reporting 800+ web and mobile vulnerabilities across OWASP Top 10 categories. My research was recognized with hall-of-fame mentions, a CVE publication (CVE-2023-3479), and invitations to premier cybersecurity conferences like Indian Govt and BSides Delhi.

My background in penetration testing, secure code review, automation, and real-world vulnerability detection aligns well with your requirements.

Thank you for considering my application. I welcome the opportunity to discuss how I can contribute to your security goals.

Sincerely,
Vikas Gupta
