Offensive Security Researcher

Sahil Ojha

I help organizations find the weaknesses in their applications and cloud before a real attacker does, then turn those findings into clear fixes a team can act on with confidence.

About

I break things carefully, so they cannot be broken carelessly.

Hi, I am Sahil Ojha, and I have spent my career on the offensive side of security. I study applications, cloud environments, and network infrastructure the way a determined attacker would, then translate what I find into clear, prioritized fixes that a team can actually ship.

Along the way I have reported more than eighteen CVEs across security software, communications platforms, and cloud services, and I hold certifications spanning Microsoft, Google Cloud, AWS, and red team operations. Lately I have been bringing AI and autonomous agents into security operations, so the slow and repetitive parts of testing can keep pace with how quickly software ships today.

Whether the goal is a focused penetration test, a full red team engagement, or a second set of eyes on your cloud posture, I aim for the same outcome every time: fewer surprises, and a security program you can trust.
