Security research / Apple ecosystems / AI + LLM

I find where machines trust text they shouldn’t.

I’m Richard Hyunho Im (@richeeta), a security researcher at Route Zero Security. I work across indirect prompt injection, authentication boundaries, lock-screen side channels, race conditions, and OAuth hijacking.

@richeeta

The interesting bugs live between the boxes.

I’m Richard Hyunho Im, co-founder and security researcher at Route Zero Security. My work focuses on systems that interpret human language or move information across trust boundaries—especially Apple platforms and AI-enabled products.

I build reproducible proofs of concept, trace the actual boundary failure, and communicate it in a form product and security teams can act on. I also created AI Auditor and 0xGUIDScanner.
