About Aishwarya Chauhan

I\'m a Security Engineer with 4.8 years of hands-on experience in FinTech environments, specializing in application security, vulnerability scanning, and security tooling QA.I’ve worked with major financial platforms like Equifax and Loan Network, where I tested and secured APIs, ran SAST/SCA scans, and contributed to secure SDLC workflows. My recent work includes malware testing, SBOM analysis, and tool validation that helped uncover detection gaps in security platforms.I love building and breaking things for a safer digital future. Whether it’s testing a security product or securing an actual app, I bring deep curiosity, sharp eyes, and a quality-first mindset.
