👋 About This Site

I’m a computer engineering student interested in computer security, operating systems, and low‑level tinkering.
This site collects computer security writeups, Hack The Box walkthroughs, and hands‑on security notes created while learning, experimenting, and breaking things safely.

Most material starts life as notes in Obsidian and is published here with light editing, so it stays close to the original investigation, commands, and thought process.

🧠 What You’ll Find

  • Hack The Box machine and challenge writeups
  • Practical penetration testing workflows and checklists
  • Linux / Windows privilege escalation notes
  • Network and service misconfiguration case studies
  • Notes from other CTF / wargame platforms such as OverTheWire and TryHackMe
  • Programming and tooling experiments – from C and scripting to Arduino, Docker, and lab automation
  • Small snippets that try to bridge theory → practice

Content is updated over time as techniques, tools, and personal understanding improve.

🛠 Workflow & Tooling

  • Obsidian for local-first note taking and graph-based knowledge management
  • Git + GitHub Pages (Chirpy theme) for versioned, reproducible publishing
  • Primarily Linux-based lab environments (e.g., Kali, Arch, containers, and VMs)

Whenever possible, steps are written so they can be reproduced later in a clean environment.

⚠️ Ethics & Disclaimer

All content is shared for educational and defensive purposes only.
Any real targets mentioned are intentionally vulnerable labs or private test environments under my control.

You are solely responsible for how you use the information here—never test techniques on systems you do not own or have explicit permission to assess.
