Milchis Catalin-Marian, Penetration Tester

Penetration Tester

Working across cybersecurity and telecom

I'm a 4th-year Telecommunications student at Transilvania University of Brasov. I work part-time on web and API security assessments at Arvato Systems Romania and in telecom R&D at Mitel Networks Romania. I am a member of the Brasov Cybersecurity Community, represent UNITBV in CTF competitions and mentor high-school students in mechatronics. In my spare time I explore wireless and RF security, software-defined radio and hardware hacking.
