Hey, I'm Chad

I do Red Team work. Adversarial simulation to be precise, testing whether defenses actually hold up when the empire strikes back. When I'm not doing that I'm building|learning|breaking things, and you'll find most of that here.

Put plainly, I break things professionally and build them for fun, or was it build things professionally and break things for fun?

My technical range is wide by design. I create|design|architect things in many different ways simply to learn how it all works under the hood.

The platforms will teach you things, mainly how to stay in their sandbox. A homelab will teach you the inner workings and what full control feels like. There is a difference and you will feel the force the first time something breaks and you actually have to fix it.

If you are learning offensive security and want practical labs over certification prep, you will find something useful here. If you are a developer curious about how attackers think about your code, keep reading. If you just want to read about someone putting Kubernetes in a pentesting range at midnight for no reason anyone asked for, welcome.
