About Abhishek
I am a Senior Product Security Engineer and Technical Lead with over 10 years of experience in cybersecurity. My career has spanned some of the most respected names in the industry — I started with penetration testing and red team engagements at PwC, moved into application security consulting at Synopsys where I conducted BSIMM assessments and helped organizations mature their security programs, then led product security initiatives at Citrix where I established security champion programs and implemented secure SDLC practices. Most recently, I worked at Atlassian, where I built an AI-powered threat modeling platform and led security for high-revenue products.
I hold industry-recognized certifications including CISSP, eWPTX (eLearnSecurity Web Application Penetration Tester eXtreme), and AWS Solutions Architect Associate. My technical expertise covers application security, cloud security architecture, container and Kubernetes security, DevSecOps, and penetration testing.
Beyond the technical side, I am passionate about helping others grow in this field. Having mentored junior engineers, built security champion communities, and navigated my own career across multiple countries and roles, I understand the challenges that come with breaking into cybersecurity or leveling up to senior positions. I enjoy making complex security concepts accessible and actionable, whether for a university student just starting out or an experienced developer looking to specialize.
I am based in Perth, Australia and offer all my lessons online, making it easy to connect regardless of where you are.

With over 10 years of hands-on experience in cybersecurity across companies like PwC, Synopsys, Citrix, and Atlassian, I bring real-world industry knowledge to every lesson. I hold certifications including CISSP, eWPTX, and AWS Solutions Architect Associate, ensuring you learn from a credentialed and practising professional.
My teaching approach is practical and scenario-driven. Rather than just covering theory, I walk students through real-world examples — from conducting threat models using STRIDE and PASTA methodologies, to building secure CI/CD pipelines, to understanding AWS security architecture. Each lesson is tailored to your current skill level and goals.
Beyond technical skills, I also offer mentoring and career guidance. Having navigated a successful career path from penetration testing at PwC to leading product security at Atlassian, I can help you map out your cybersecurity career trajectory, identify the right certifications to pursue, build a compelling resume, prepare for behavioural and technical interviews, and understand what hiring managers are really looking for. Whether you are pivoting into cybersecurity from another field or aiming for a senior role, I provide practical advice grounded in first-hand experience.
Typical lessons run for 60 minutes and follow a structured format: a brief review of previous concepts, introduction of new material with hands-on demonstrations, and a Q&A segment to solidify understanding. Mentoring sessions are more conversational and goal-oriented, focused on your specific career challenges.
My lessons are suited for a wide range of learners, including university students studying cybersecurity or IT, early-career professionals looking to break into the security field, experienced engineers wanting to upskill in areas like cloud security or DevSecOps, and job seekers preparing for cybersecurity interviews and certifications.
Whether you want to master ethical hacking techniques, prepare for your CISSP exam, build confidence for technical interviews, navigate a career transition, or understand how security fits into modern software development, I tailor each session to help you achieve measurable progress.
