About Me
My name is Eric Muthengia. I’m a Dad, Offensive Security Consultant. Basically, I hack into companies before the bad guys do!
I work at Platcorp Group in Nairobi, Kenya as a Lead Cybersecurity Engineer. I blog about technology, gadgets, code, the web, where we’re going and where we’ve been. I’m excited about community, social equity, entrepreneurship and above all, the open web.
I’m also on Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and Github

Too Much Information
I am an early adopter, it seems. I ran Windows 95, 98 and Backtrack OS a very long time ago. I like tools, and I’ve written some of my own for personal hacking.
I hack on hardware, IoT devices, web applications, APIs, networks and mobile applications. I do Open Source. I am good at Linux and keep my resume mostly up to date for no reason.
I have hacked a number of companies and got awarded bounties. I don’t sleep too much, I research a lot.
