Taylor Christian Newsome · Security Researcher & Developer

⚠️ Official Telegram: @SleepTheGod I do not use Twitter/X. Any account claiming otherwise is an impersonator.

Security researcher and developer focused on vulnerability research, application security, reverse engineering, low-level systems, firmware, and security tooling. My work spans bug bounty research, CTFs, web security, kernel and console research, telecommunications security, and open-source development.

I build and analyze security tooling across multiple platforms and languages, with a particular interest in understanding systems at a low level and turning research into practical, reproducible tools.
