What I Investigate
02
OSINT & Investigations
Open-source intelligence across social media, forums, dark web channels, and public records to uncover risks and attribute threats.
03
Offensive Security
Penetration testing and red team operations that identify vulnerabilities and attack paths before adversaries exploit them.
04
Security Research
Designing security tools, AI-powered intelligence frameworks, and novel approaches to automated threat analysis and investigation.
About
I work where intelligence meets security.
Threat intelligence, OSINT, offensive security, and cybersecurity research.
I'm a cybersecurity professional operating at the intersection of threat intelligence, OSINT, and offensive security. My work spans leading analyst teams, conducting penetration tests for government organizations, and building automation tools that turn raw intelligence into actionable insight.
I've delivered OSINT workshops for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, guest lectures at leading universities, and hands-on training on dark web investigations, wireless attacks, and ISO 27001 compliance. My master's research focuses on integrating large language models into OSINT workflows for attack surface mapping and threat correlation.
What drives my work is a practical question: how do we find what adversaries expose, understand what it means, and respond before it becomes an incident?
