Research & Development Section
Do you think programmers cannot write secure code? Do you want programs to behave the way YOU want them to? Or maybe you are interested in quiet and focused research work in the IT world? If so, welcome to the Research & Development section.
Here, we dig deep — right into the heart of every program. It does not matter whether it is malware found on your friend’s computer, some Chinese “smart” gadget from AliExpress, or a product used daily by millions of people. If it can be taken apart and thoroughly analyzed, we are interested in it.
In the R&D section, we focus on low-level hacking. We look closely at how software behaves internally, analyze its operation, and explore how its behavior can be changed by manipulating the bytes stored in system memory.
Who are we looking for?
Anyone can analyze and abuse software — regardless of gender, religion, nationality, or age. We are looking for people who:
- are interested in research-oriented positions in cybersecurity companies
- want to become bug hunters and earn money by finding vulnerabilities in popular applications and systems
- enjoy tackling the “scary”

You do not need prior experience — you will learn everything here.
What comes next?
The skills developed in this section can lead to careers such as:
- Bug Hunter
- Malware Analyst
- Exploit Developer
- Red Team Operator (malware writer)
- Reverse Engineer
This type of work can apply to virtually any field — from Game Development and consumer applications to industrial control systems and medical technology.
