ABHINAV CHAUDHARY
Cybersecurity Engineer / Software Developer
Building secure systems and breaking things (responsibly). Passionate about automation, cloud infrastructure, and making IT less painful.
ABOUT
Hey there! I'm a cybersecurity engineer and software developer who recently completed my Master's in Cybersecurity at The George Washington University (GPA: 3.7). I spend my days securing enterprise systems, automating everything that can be automated, and occasionally explaining to people why "password123" isn't a great security strategy.
With over 3 years of experience in enterprise IT and security, I've worked on everything from endpoint management and VDI infrastructure to cloud security and identity management. I'm passionate about building tools that make security less painful and more efficient. When I'm not breaking (or fixing) things in production, you'll find me tinkering with automation scripts, exploring new security frameworks, or building side projects that solve problems I probably created myself.
