Haein Lee
Hi! I'm an integrated MS/PhD student in the KAIST Hacking Lab. My hacking journey began in 2022 when I was admitted to the graduate program, and I was immediately captivated by the field. This fascination deepened as I discovered a bug in the Chromium browser and developed n-day exploit.
Since the rise of large language models, I've been particularly interested in applying AI to security tasks. From 2023 to 2025, I was part of Team Atlanta in the AIxCC competition, where I developed a patching agent. Currently, my primary focus remains on AI-driven security research.
