Konstantin Degtiarev – self-employed.

I hold a Master's degree in Applied Mathematics and successfully completed postgraduate studies specializing in "Mathematical and Software Support for Computer Systems, Complexes, and Computer Networks" at the Moscow Institute of Radio Engineering, Electronics, and Automation (MIREA TU). Throughout my education, I gained experience in programming, information security, and system administration.

My professional career began at the Scientific Research Institute of Automatic Apparatus (NIIAA), where I spent eight years developing software-hardware architectures and system software. Having spent a significant portion of my academic and professional life in Moscow, I moved to London in 2014 to oversee the end-to-end creation of a website (https://www.anglo.com) in accordance with the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Following the successful completion of this project, in 2017, I led the Information Security Department at Skyline Info Technologies Group in Moscow and Kuala Lumpur. After setting up the office and assembling a team of penetration testers, we identified critical vulnerabilities in the resources of dozens of companies, two prominent software providers, and discovered several zero-day vulnerabilities in IoT devices within a year.

Since late 2018, I've been operating as an independent entrepreneur and an IT specialist, aiding companies in enhancing their information security. Particularly notable is my collaboration with the American startup Cyberstar Plus Corp, involved in developing virtual reality applications. I configured server infrastructure, developed security policies, implemented SIEM software, set up CI / CD, and assisted them for over a year in securing their data.

In March 2020, I joined Huawei as a Senior Information Security Engineer. My responsibilities involve security research, vulnerability analysis using both black-box and white-box methods, as well as studying protocols and Huawei devices for optical networks.

Since March 2023, I have been heading the Information Security Department at MOST Finance LTD (https://www.mostfinance.ae/).

Currently, I am seeking new and engaging challenges where I can apply and further improve my skills.
