🚀🔒 Hey Cyber Crusaders! Haven't dropped some cyber-gems in a hot minute. 💻🔥
Current Personal & Professional Initiatives:
- 🎓 Academic Vibes (grad school) - juggling bits and bytes in the Masters in Cyber (MSCTS) program at IUPUI.
- 💼 Full-Time Job @OPENLANE - Information Security Analyst (since May 2021) -- rocking the cyber trenches as an Information Security Analyst at OPENLANE since May 2021. 🕵️ Defending networks, slaying vulnerabilities, and keeping those cyber baddies at bay.
- 💍 Getting married in a month
- 🏡 Adulting Adventures: Bought my first house (at 24), and let me tell you, the real vulnerabilities aren't in the network; they're in leaky pipes and faulty wiring. ⚒️🏠
- 🌐 Other side projects and hobbies
I've been curating a personal knowledge base in both Notion and Obsidian over the past 3 years, and I have lots that I can do with it.
Potential future projects:
- AI-Based Password Cracking: Generating targeted wordlists will only become more popular. 🤖🔐
- Contributable, Collaborative (Obsidian-Based) CMS & Wiki Framework: Where collaboration meets obsidian-like strength. 💡🏰
- Tons of Curations (tools, apps, etc): I love awesome lists on GitHub and want to expand on that. 🛠️📚
- Rework of my public knowledgebase: My personal one is updated every single day. 🔄💻
- Self-Hosting Projects: Cloud is cool and all, but self-hosting teaches you a lot about a lot. ☁️🏠
- Cyber Deception Tools: The best defense is to embrace knowledge asymmetry like I'm Kevin from Home Alone. 🤫🥪🎭
- Cost-Effective SIEM and Log Management Framework: Stop bleeding dollars just to save some random info logs that never get used (cough Splunk). 💸📊
- Personal Privacy & Cyber Resilience: Guarding my digital fortress like I'm that one guy who snuck a Rubik's cube past NSA security. 🛡️🔒
- Web App: gamifying cybersecurity scenarios and allowing people to build them out in an online tool. 🎮🕹️
Stick around, infosec fam, because the best is yet to come🔒🌐
