About Michiel
Michiel Lemmens is a SANS Associate Instructor and Founder of Qboid Labs with a focus in Offensive Operations. He teaches SEC504: Hacker Tools, Techniques, and Incident Handling and SEC660: Advanced Penetration Testing, Exploit Writing, and Ethical Hacking. His teaching is grounded in years of offensive security work spanning enterprise penetration testing, exploit development, adversary emulation, and cyber resilience assessments. That experience helps students understand not only how sophisticated attacks work, but also how offensive techniques can be applied to improve defensive strategy, quantify risk, and support better security decisions.
