MSc Cyber Security @ University of Birmingham.
Cybersecurity Consultant. GDPR & Security Governance. Penetration Testing.
Hey, I'm Musab — a cybersecurity consultant, developer, and petrolhead.
I'm finishing my MSc in Cyber Security at the University of Birmingham, after completing a First Class BSc in Computer Science at the University of Wolverhampton. I'm passionate about helping businesses understand their security risk — clearly, practically, and without jargon.
I work with businesses as a freelance cybersecurity consultant — delivering GDPR gap analyses, security governance roadmaps, and penetration testing reports. Available for remote engagements via Upwork and direct.
Outside of tech I follow geopolitics closely, obsess over cars (the Porsche 911 Turbo S is peak engineering), and enjoy football and table tennis.
