Meet The Team - Yasir Mohamed - Infrastructure and Security Analyst

We’re excited to welcome you to the CoLab family, Yasir! Tell us a little about yourself.

I graduated computer science from Memorial University around 9 years ago. I worked my way up the IT chain until I reached my career goal of focusing on security. I like to learn new things and in my spare time I do hacking challenges.

How did you first get into security?

I was working on an iPhone app in 2014, and while I was researching way to avoid SQL Injections, I read articles about ethical hacking which intrigued me. Since then I never stopped learning about security.

Why did you join CoLab and what are you most excited about?

CoLab is a young company yet it has so much culture embedded in its fabric. I love how everyone cares about one another and how it made everyone feel like a family instead of a colleague.

If you had to be shipwrecked on a deserted island, but all your human needs—such as food and water—were taken care of, what two items would you want to have with you?

A pencil and a sudoku book.
