./ABOUT

No polished corporate bio. Just the work, the mindset, and the rabbit holes.

I’m er4pwn, I got into cybersecurity because I’ve always liked figuring out how things work — and what happens when they don’t work the way they’re supposed to. Most of the time, you’ll find me playing CTFs, testing web apps and APIs, looking into vulnerabilities, or going down random security rabbit holes just because something caught my attention.

I’m especially interested in penetration testing, bug hunting, red teaming, hardware hacking. I enjoy the process of finding something weird, understanding why it happens, and proving whether it actually matters.

Outside of security, I’m also into gaming, music, learning new stuff, and occasionally spending way too much time on problems I probably should’ve left for tomorrow.
