Prashant Kumar

Working as a senior security researcher with over 8 years of hands-on experience in threat analysis and malware research. He specializes in investigating URL- and email-based attack vectors, with deep expertise in reverse engineering malicious samples to uncover adversary techniques and tactics.

His work focuses on identifying emerging threats in the wild, dissecting real-world malware campaigns, and translating complex technical findings into actionable intelligence. Passionate about continuous learning and knowledge sharing, he actively publishes research-driven blogs and presents insights that help organizations strengthen their defensive posture against evolving cyber threats.

At CSA XCON 2026, Prashant is very much excited to present the latest research on the increasingly abused ClickFix technique—a widely used method leveraged across multiple malware families for initial access and payload delivery. His session will break down real-world campaigns, attacker workflows, and practical defensive strategies to detect and mitigate such threats effectively.
