[ CLIENT_VERDICT ]

"Miguel is gifted with the ability to dive deep on hard technical problems and find vulnerabilities even the best engineers might be blind to. His audit gave me clear, precise, and actionable steps I could take to increase performance and reduce vulnerabilities. Going through his thorough analysis gave me a new perspective on the design decisions I initially glazed over. After the audit, I now have confidence in the performance and scalability of my infrastructure moving forward."
