Anton Helin

Freelance Information Security Specialist


I am a technical information security professional from Finland specializing in mobile and web application security. I hold a Master's degree in computer science and a Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, so apart from my hacking experience I have a deep understanding of theoretical subjects related to computer technology. My work experience includes technical information security consulting, application auditing and project management.

Google has awarded me bounties for my work in Android security and I currently hold top 300 rank in the Google Hall of Fame.
