Barna Szeghy

Technical director, project manager, ethical hacker, IT security expert | CISA®

Specialties

Design and implementation flaws in web applications, database discovery and data extraction techniques, client-side JavaScript, SQL and code injection, passwords and password hashes, Python and Bash scripting

Barna Szeghy specialises in vulnerabilities of complex web applications. With more than 15 years of experience in web development and IT operations, he is at the core of our team – no surprise, since hardly any solution today comes without a web interface, whether for presentation or administration. Beyond digging through client-side JavaScript, his favourite areas are remote database discovery and the weaknesses of iOS applications, which are increasingly common in the enterprise. Barna graduated as a programmer from István Széchenyi College in Győr and obtained his Certified Ethical Hacker qualification at Kürt Academy.

Web application developer, ethical hacker, IT security expert | CEH | OSCP®

Specialties

Web application and internal network assessments, red team projects

Gábor Szécsi has more than 9 years of experience in designing and developing web applications. His broad background means he not only identifies individual vulnerabilities but also works effectively with development teams to raise the security of the systems under test. He also has several years of experience in internal network assessments and red team projects. To date, he has taken part in more than 150 IT security projects across a wide range of technologies.
Kristóf Szabó

Kristóf Szabó

Ethical hacker | OSWP | CEH® | eJPT | eWPTX | AZ-900

Specialties

Identifying logic flaws, API abuse, bypass techniques and practical exploitation in constrained environments. His work bridges web and embedded security, combining scripting, protocol analysis and low-level hardware access.

Kristóf has 7 years of experience testing the security of web applications and IT infrastructure. He has worked on international projects, both remote and on-site, including for KPMG. He adapts his methodology to each environment, whether it is a network protected by IDS, IPS or WAF systems or custom application logic. His focus areas include bypass techniques such as MIME-type confusion, token abuse and HTTP request smuggling. He has discovered vulnerabilities in IP cameras and DVR systems and has worked in depth on UART-based system access. He is currently preparing for the OSCP certification while further expanding his automation and hardware testing skills.

Attila Garamvölgyi

Ethical hacker | OSCP+ | CRTO | CEH | eWPTX | eMAPT | C-AI/MLPen | ISTQB CTAL-TAE

Specialties

Penetration testing and red teaming, web application and API security, security assessment of Active Directory and enterprise infrastructure, attack simulation and testing how defences can be bypassed, security testing of AI-based systems.

Attila has hands-on experience across several areas of offensive cybersecurity. He specialises in security assessments of web applications, APIs and enterprise infrastructure, and in red teaming techniques that model real attacker methods.

His OSCP+ and CRTO certifications back his knowledge of technical attack methods, Active Directory environments, privilege escalation, attacker infrastructure and bypassing defensive mechanisms. With the C-AI/MLPen certification he also specialises in uncovering the security risks of AI-based systems.

His MSc in Business Informatics and his experience across different areas of IT help him interpret technical vulnerabilities in their business context. In his work he goes beyond identifying security gaps: he puts particular emphasis on showing how exploitable they really are, what business impact they have and how they can be defended against effectively.

Fruzsina Pásztor

Ethical hacker

Specialties

Web application penetration testing, network and infrastructure security testing, phishing simulation, open-source intelligence (OSINT)

After her university studies, Fruzsina completed an IT programme at Codecool and now works as an ethical hacker. Her work focuses mainly on security testing of web applications and of network and infrastructure systems. With an attacker’s mindset, she looks for the vulnerabilities and weak points that pose a real security risk to organisations. She also takes part in phishing simulations, including creating realistic emails and websites, and works on open-source intelligence (OSINT) gathering. Continuous learning and professional growth matter to her, so alongside cybersecurity she keeps expanding her knowledge of artificial intelligence and strives to keep pace with new technologies.
