Pouria Ahmadi (Icarus)
Security Engineer specializing in Protocol Reconstruction, Reverse Engineering, and Red Team Tool Development. I dissect complex systems, expose protocol flaws, and build resilient security tools.
Research & Engineering Focus
Core areas of specialization, lab testing, and security tool development.
Protocol Reconstruction
Dissecting custom, proprietary, and undocumented network protocols. Rebuilding complete state machines and identifying logic flaws in packet structure, encryption handshakes, and transport logic.
Reverse Engineering
Static and dynamic binary analysis of firmware, closed-source protocols, and malware. Reconstructing assembly routines into high-level abstractions using tools like Ghidra, IDA Pro, and x64dbg.
Exploit Development
Crafting custom proof-of-concept exploits for newly discovered memory corruption vulnerabilities, logical bypasses, and transport-level injection flaws.
