Who am I?
I’m Max, a Senior Cybersecurity Engineer specializing in operational technology, securing industrial environments for a market leader in the beverage manufacturing industry. Previously, I worked in mechanical engineering and an innovative startup which is developing autonomous vehicles for a centrally controlled material flow in Industry 4.0. The goal was there a fully interconnected factory where autonomous transport systems seamlessly interact with the production environment to enhance efficiency.
With years of penetration testing experience, I started my own business in 2024. My passion for offensive security began by diving into Hack The Box, TryHackMe, and real-world security challenges.
Committed to continuous learning, I’m pursuing top industry certifications while sharing insights and pushing the boundaries of cybersecurity.
