- Strong knowledge of adversarial tools such as Metasploit, Cobalt Strike, Burp Suite, or custom scripts.
- Proficiency in scripting languages (e.g., Python, PowerShell, or Bash).
- Familiarity with cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP) and their security challenges.
- Knowledge of attack frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK.;
- Relevant certifications (e.g., OSCP, CRTP, CEH) are a plus.
