Research Areas

Core Speaking Topics

Research-backed sessions for technical teams, security conferences, and executive audiences. Each topic is grounded in hands-on work – not recycled whitepapers or abstract best practices.

Cloud Security in the Modern Era

How cloud security actually fails in practice – identity misconfigurations, metadata service abuse, lateral movement paths, and why the shared responsibility model leaves bigger gaps than most teams realize. 

AI in Cybersecurity

The attack surface of AI systems – prompt injection, model poisoning, API exposure, and why the security assumptions we built for traditional software don’t map cleanly onto AI infrastructure.

Building Resilient Architectures

What makes distributed systems resilient isn’t just redundancy – it’s understanding where the trust boundaries break. Sessions draw from real architecture reviews and research into how attackers move through complex systems. 

DevSecOps in Action

What DevSecOps gets wrong, how to embed security that actually catches real threats, not just the ones that scanners are configured to find. Based on experience designing security into enterprise software delivery pipelines.

Microservices & Container Security

Container isolation is weaker than most engineers assume. This session covers how container breakouts actually happen, from real-world research into microservices, Kubernetes, and shared compute environments and what defenses actually hold. 

Innovations in Cloud Services

Cloud identity is the new perimeter – and most organizations don’t know how it fails. This session covers IAM misconfigurations, service account abuse, cross-cloud identity paths, and how attackers chain these into full compromise.

Why Chen?

"Chen's Session Stood Out" -
John Hammond, BSidesNova 2026

Chen is known for turning complex cloud research into clear, practical insight for engineering and security teams. His talks are grounded in independent research, real vulnerability discovery, and hands-on work breaking actual systems – not recycled vendor material. 

The goal is not to overwhelm audiences with technical detail, but to give them a clear mental model of how attacks actually work and what those patterns mean for the decisions they make.

2026 Roadmap

Emerging Topics & Research

01

Attacking AI Infrastructure

How models, APIs, and chatbots become attack surface. Moving beyond “AI for security” toward “security of AI”.

02

Automation in Cloud Offensive Security

How offensive techniques are being automated and what this means for defenders trying to keep up with attack tooling that doesn't sleep.

03

Container & Kubernetes Security

What comes after basic container hardening - runtime behavior, supply chain attacks, and the security assumptions that break at scale.
