NahamSec (Ben Sadeghipour) Portfolio
Bug bounty hunter and pentester with over a decade of work finding vulnerabilities for Meta, Apple, Amazon, Zoom, TikTok and the Department of Defense, now CEO/co-founder of HackingHub, teaching reconnaissance and web hacking methodology publicly.
What makes it work
A breakdown of the choices that make this portfolio stand out.
Named enterprise and government targets
Listing specific, recognizable organizations (Meta, Apple, DoD) that his findings applied to gives concrete scale to the "over a decade of bug bounty work" claim.
A transition from practitioner to founder documented plainly
Stating the shift from individual bounty hunting to co-founding and running HackingHub shows career progression from doing the work to building infrastructure for others to learn it.
A free entry-level resource alongside the paid offering
"Getting Started in Bug Bounty," published for free, positions the paid course as a next step for a beginner audience already engaged, rather than a cold sales pitch.
What Penetration Testers can take from this
Specific, actionable tips to apply to your own portfolio — no generic advice.
Name the real organizations your work applied to, even briefly — it turns an abstract experience claim into something concrete.
If you've moved from individual practitioner to building something (a company, a course, a tool), show that progression rather than freezing your bio at 'freelance hacker.'
A genuinely free beginner resource builds an audience honestly before you introduce anything paid.
