Defensive Cybersecurity & SOC Operations
I'm a self-taught developer building software applications, tools, and contributing to open-source projects. Now, I'm directing that background into cybersecurity, focusing on network protocols, incident analysis, and SOC workflows. I'm actively building practical knowledge and completing hands-on labs.
A graphical user interface for the FreeRDP v3 client that simplifies session management on Linux while enforcing host-bound security.
