Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos

Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos helps teams build secure products that also meet modern cybersecurity regulations. Over the years, he has worked with standards and frameworks such as FIPS, PCI-DSS, CIS, RED, and the CRA—sometimes voluntarily.

He has created and led product security teams, contributed to protocol standards including TLS and SRP, and enjoys working at the intersection of security and real-world systems. His background is in mathematics and cryptography, and he holds a PhD focused on breaking cryptographic protocols, which has left him healthily skeptical of new cryptographic designs.

He currently works as a Product Security Architect at ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions, with a focus on making security practical, scalable, and slightly less painful for everyone involved.
