Abdusselam Karahan

whoami

I'm Abdusselam Karahan, known as Abdü in the industry. I originally graduated with a degree in Physical Education and Sports Teaching, but my passion for technology led me to cybersecurity. As part of the Yavuzlar Team established under the Cyber Homeland initiative I worked hands-on in web application security, taking an active role in identifying and remediating vulnerabilities. Currently, I am backing my hands-on background both academically through Management Information Systems and through international certification processes.
