Security Expert Team

All experts of Whiteshield have certified themselves to truly become professionals in their field. Each of us holds a certificate to confirm that we are Kürt Certified Ethical Hackers. At the same time, before we dedicated ourselves to becoming Ethical Hackers, we all spent long years developing our expertise with several successful IT projects in web development, system administration and IT project management. We believe in specializing in a topic close to our heart, so that our knowledge reaches its highest potential – this way our professional experience may serve you best, and cover the complete extensive domain of IT security. We believe in challenge and competition, thus we took part in the Wargame competition held at Hacktivity 2011, the largest hacker conference in Central and Eastern Europe. Our team came out first, by a huge margin, yet this is only the first step taken. Next year we hope to achieve the same in other tournaments.
