About Me

Hello! I’m Sharon Brizinov, a security researcher. I specialize in vulnerability research and OT/IoT security. Most of the vulnerabilities I have found can be found here. I’ve present my research in various security conferences including BlackHat, DEFCON, HITCON, BlueHatIL, SANS, S4, HackInParis, and others.

I also participated in Pwn2Own five times including ICS 2020, ICS 2022, IoT 2022,ICS 2023, IoT 2023, got SANS Institue “Researcher of the Year” Award and won DEFCON 27’s ICS CTF, earning a DEFCON black badge.

Besides security research, I also like to develop mobile applications and games. You can find most of my projects on GitHub.
