About

Who am I?

My name is Alex and I'm an application security professional and writer, born and raised somewhere in Europe. With over 15 years of working experience in the IT industry and a background in software engineering, I now enjoy most fields of cybersecurity. I spend my days doing audits, red-teaming, information and network security, securing applications and the SDLC, forensics, cryptography but also writing policies and mentoring others. Once in a while I might relax by doing a capture-the-flag challenge. I started this website in 2018 as a way to gather my technical knowledge. This is were I put my time, organize what I learn, as well as my thoughts and share these things with others.
