What are your favourite things about Freebook Global Technologies?
My favourite aspects of Freebook Global Technologies include the promising career prospects within my current role and the gaming laptop thoughtfully provided to support my work.
What does your Freebook Global Technologies role involve?
The penetration testing part of my role involves utilising an array of hacking tools to access our clients' computer systems, followed by compiling comprehensive reports on the methods employed and offering guidance on remediation. Additionally, with vulnerability management, I employ Qualys to monitor potential vulnerabilities in clients' web applications and software, subsequently advising on strategies to mitigate these vulnerabilities. The consultative element of my position revolves around providing clients with actionable insights to address the identified system issues.
What would your dream project be?
My dream project is to do an internal penetration test for a company with a large attack surface and lots of possible entries to sink my teeth into. I am at the beginning of my career as an ethical hacker, so when doing an assessment, I am looking for the so-called ‘quick wins’ that allow for lateral movement and privilege escalation in a network. A company having a large attack surface would mean more opportunities for misconfiguration, which in turn would allow me those quick wins.
What do you enjoy doing outside of work?
I like to stay active outside of work. A few of my favourite hobbies are; making beats on FL Studio, mountain biking and cooking.
