    Key Responsibilities:

    Reverse-engineer malware to understand its behavior, techniques, and impact.

     

    Develop proof-of-concept malware simulations that mimic real-world threats while remaining safe for production environments.

    Collaborate with the CHAOS team to extend SafeBreach capabilities by creating custom attack functions.

     

    Work closely with security engineers to enhance detection and response strategies.
