South Korea
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSeunghun Han is an assistant professor and seasoned security researcher with 14+ years building hypervisors, firmware, and kernel defenses, currently based in South Korea. He designed the Shadow-box hypervisor family and led high-impact vulnerability research—multiple CVEs across Linux kernel and BIOS/UEFI—and has contributed patches to upstream projects. A frequent Black Hat and USENIX presenter and review-board member, he translates deep low-level research into practical tooling (e.g., TPM and BitLocker analysis tools) and published books on 64-bit multicore OS design. His industry experience includes firmware engineering at Samsung and producing automated testing frameworks that reliably find firmware faults. Less obvious: he combines offensive HW/firmware pen-testing (IRON-HID) with defensively focused hypervisor-based kernel protectors, bridging research, tooling, and production deployment.
