@th3CyF0x Tigran Terpandjian (th3CyF0x) is a Senior Analyst at Accenture Federal Services. An alumnus of the Advanced Practical Social Engineering Course taught by Social-Engineer Inc, he has been fascinated with languages, cultures, social psychology, military tactics and history since his childhood. Despite receiving a B.A in international relations with a concentration in: world politics and diplomacy (University of Richmond), he stumbled across the path of Cyber Security and decided to pull the trigger and tumble down the security rabbit hole. Along the way, he was beset by the beasts of Compliance, the SOC, FISMA and FedRAMP but found his banner under Red Teaming & Social Engineering; now a cyber threat hunter, he has creatively combined his love for red teaming and social engineering. Tigran enjoys applying red teaming, digital reconnaissance and social engineering concepts to conduct cyber threat hunting and is passionate about emulating the adversary.

When not on the hunt, Tigran loves playing tennis, practicing Krav Maga, is an advocate for the inconvenient truth, writing articles on Red Team Journal and a Social Engineering novel series for Rogue Dynamics, strengthening his multilingual competency and playing/developing tactics for World of Warships. And experimenting dangerously with spices and sauces in the kitchen
