Projects

Tools, infrastructure, and research built to understand security from the inside: each one a hands-on exploration of how systems are designed, attacked, and defended.

Security Research Project in progress

Year-long collaboration with a graphics programmer and a backend developer. I lead the security track: pfSense firewalling and VLAN segmentation, a custom SIEM for log monitoring and detection, server hardening, and threat research into AI-driven 3D rendering (Gaussian Splatting) and streaming systems.

SteganoSaurus

Linguistic steganography with large language models. Instead of ciphertext that visibly signals "encrypted", the message is encoded into natural-looking model output, concealing that it exists at all. Decoding requires the same model and the same context prompt.

Self-hosted Linux server & home lab

An Ubuntu server I configure, secure, and maintain on my own hardware. It is being extended into a segmented home lab: pfSense for firewalling and network segmentation, and Security Onion for monitoring and detection.
