Trainers
Aaron Hnatiw is a cybersecurity and software engineering professional, with over a decade specializing in developing security tooling. As a long time gamer, yet lacking the time and the patience to “git gud”, he has become proficient at the art of hacking video games in order to enjoy them as he sees fit.
Mickael Nadeau is the co-founder of CYBERDEFENSE.AI. His passion for security and technology has led him to go through multiple technical training sessions. He previously led some research on game hacking which gave birth to multiple talks and multiple workshops in the past few years. He's part of the Corelan's survivors and achieved the “CertifiedBrute” status by Brutelogic. Joke aside, he's also known as the “Docker/Kubernetes Wizard” regarding cloud security architecture.
