Toyeeb Akintayo

Enthusiastic cybersecurity professional with hands-on experience in vulnerability assessment and penetration testing within authorized lab environments. Skilled in identifying and validating security vulnerabilities across web applications, networks, and systems, with a strong interest in ethical hacking and adversary-based testing methodologies.

Passionate about strengthening security posture through risk analysis, detailed documentation, and actionable remediation recommendations. Eager to apply practical VAPT skills, continuously learn industry best practices, and contribute effectively to real-world security assessments.

I’m a Penetration Tester and Red Team Analyst with 3 years of hands-on experience helping organizations identify and fix security weaknesses before attackers can exploit them. I’ve worked with SCHOOLVILLE LIMITEDand CYBERFORT, where I conducted vulnerability assessments and penetration testing (VAPT) across networks, systems, and web applications.

My work involves thinking like a real attacker, performing reconnaissance, exploiting vulnerabilities, moving laterally within environments, and clearly documenting findings to help teams improve their security posture. I enjoy breaking things ethically and then helping fix them properly.

I hold the eJPT and CRTA certifications, which reflect my practical experience in offensive security, including Active Directory attacks and post-exploitation techniques. Over the years, I’ve built strong skills in red team operations, vulnerability analysis, and security reporting.

My most relevant education comes from hands-on cybersecurity training and industry-recognized certifications. I earned the eJPT (eLearnSecurity Junior Penetration Tester) certification, which strengthened my foundation in networking, reconnaissance, exploitation, and web application testing. I also obtained the CRTA (Certified Red Team Analyst) certification, where I developed practical skills in Active Directory attacks, privilege escalation, lateral movement, and real-world red team techniques.

Beyond certifications, my learning has been deeply practical, focused on offensive security labs, simulations, and real-world VAPT engagements that directly support my work as a Penetration Tester and Red Team Analyst.
