About Me
Usama Varikottil
Application security engineer.
I assist companies to safeguard all categories of data by finding security vulnerabilities in their applications, systems, and networks.
The primary way I secure clients is by penetration testing all the assets of their company. I discover the vulnerable feature, study its risks, and guide the entire team to prevent the security issue.
I used this approach in helping Clockify to safeguard 2+ million users by detecting 2 critical vulnerabilities in their API. Before this, I secured 150k+ legal professionals via discovering a serious security issue in the Clio web application.
I still work as a freelancer today and have helped 25+ companies so far.
