Who We Are

Stobaugh Group was founded by Cody Stobaugh (K0mraid), a researcher and hacker by heart. His journey began with unlocking iPhones and rooting Androids for fun and as a business for friends and locals, that passion further evolved into a life long obsession with security research. His insights have a record of providing a unique perspective, shedding light on the tactics employed by malicious actors and often finding vulnerabilities overlooked by others and automated pentesting solutions.

Stobaugh Group's genesis stemmed from Cody's initial struggles to enter the cybersecurity industry professionally. Despite his extensive skills and experience, he faced repeated job rejections. By applying First Principles of Analysis and introspection, Cody quickly realized he was not alone in this predicament, coinciding with the industry's prevalent "skills gap" outcry & recognizing this disconnect, he decided to find his own path, not only to overcome his own hurdles but also to empower others facing similar challenges and effect a tangible change.

Thus, Stobaugh Group emerged as a testament to Cody's determination and serves as a resource for aspiring hackers!

Uriel Baca, who's title doesn't serve him any justice, exemplifies passionate dedication. His early, selfless offer to market Stobaugh Group for free speaks volumes. Like Cody, Uriel brings a humble background and an eagerness to rise above traditional expectations. He took early initiative and is a driving factor in our social media presence, creating and piloting different programs and marketing tactics. He is the jack-of-all-trades of the Stobaugh Group team.
