I have a passion for technology, particularly in the areas of computers, networking, and, above all, cybersecurity. I spend my free time learning and adapting to these ever-changing fields. Today’s technological infrastructure offers us incredible advantages never before imagined. However, this complexity is a double-edged sword. While it enables us to achieve remarkable feats, it also exposes us to significant vulnerabilities.

Recent incidents have revealed weaknesses that are difficult to counteract, largely because so much of our infrastructure is beyond our control. The increasing reliance on cloud infrastructure further exacerbates this issue. Even if a company adheres to best practices, its data may still be hosted on a provider that does not.

Moreover, even the most diligent professionals cannot always defend against malicious actors when manufacturers ship products with inherent vulnerabilities like backdoors, hard-coded passwords, or, as seen in recent examples, cryptographic keys not intended for production.

To address these challenges, I stay up-to-date with the current technological landscape and continuously evolve my programming skills to better support my work in IT and continuously evolve my programming skills to better support my work in IT and cybersecurity.
