Hi I’m Hugo, I’m french, working in Paris, France, I started my career as a developer, but very quickly I get interested in other fields of IT, so I started freelancing as a devops and system administrator, then one thing led to another, I ended up getting interested in cybersecurity, which now takes up most of my time.

Even though this is no longer my main activity anymore, I continue to provide services as an independent “pure player” cybersecurity operator, I charge 100€/hour for any of the following services:

  • Blueteaming (SOC, DFIR, Threat hunt, Reverse)
  • Malware development & AV/EDR evasion
  • Exploit development & 0day research
  • Pentest & Phishing

If you have an offer for me, or simply want to discuss about one of my recent publication, please contact me at hugo@perinazzo.com
