Hala Naaz • Red Teaming • AI Security • Security Research
From Non-Tech Beginnings
to Cybersecurity & Offensive Engineering
Hello! I'm Hala Naaz. Coming from a non-technical background, I built my path into cybersecurity through self-learning, hands-on security labs, experimentation, CTFs, practical projects, and research.
Today, through AshlynxCyber, I focus on Red Teaming, AI Security, and Security Research — working across web application security, AI red teaming, vulnerability research, and security labs to analyze attack surfaces, test vulnerabilities, and build practical security tooling.
Hands-on security testing across web applications, reconnaissance, vulnerability assessment, red teaming, CTFs, and controlled security labs.
Exploring AI application attack surfaces through prompt injection testing, LLM security research, RAG and agent security testing, adversarial testing, and AI red teaming.
