Hello World

Welcome to my new blog. What to Expect I’ll be using this space to share: Security tools I build Analysis of interesting security problems Data-driven observations Technical experiments and results Random thoughts about security issues I encounter The focus will be primarily technical content, though I may occasionally venture into other topics that catch my interest. Coming Soon My next post will challenge the fundamental logic of vulnerability scanning and present a new paradigm for modern security. Stay tuned! ...
