Current Chapter Leaders
KV Prashanth (2012 - Present)
Akash Mahajan (2012 - Present)
I am The Web Application Security Guy. Apart from running a company offering application security consulting, I spend majority of my time doing volunteer work for OWASP as the Bangalore chapter leader and null - The Open Security Community as a Community Manager. I tweet about security quite regularly on twitter account @makash. Feel free to get in touch.
Riyaz Walikar (2014 - Present)
For food and shelter, I work as a pentester/web security tester+evangelist at a Big4. I have been active in the security community for the better part of the last 7 years by working closely with the Bangalore OWASP chapter and null - The Open Security community.
My technical interests lie with programming, bug bounty, malware analysis, breaking web applications, playing CTFs, researching devices that fall under the Internet of Things category and penetration testing networks exposed to the Internet. When not writing/breaking code, you can find me sleeping, playing football, reading or fishing.
