Technical research notes on offensive security engineering, low-level tooling, and security architecture. I write about how security tools are built, how runtime mechanisms behave, how protocols and modules are structured, and how complex systems can be analyzed from an attacker-informed engineering perspective.

The main areas covered here are:

• Offensive security engineering and research methodology.
• C++ security tooling, build systems, module boundaries, and test harnesses.
• Windows internals, PE loading, reflective loading, unwind metadata, and runtime analysis.
• Application security, secure code review, exploitability reasoning, and design review.
• C2 architecture, transport abstractions, message formats, module loading, and operator workflows.
• Kubernetes and OpenShift security modeling, RBAC analysis, and graph-based attack surface mapping.
• LLM agentic workflows for security research, code review, tooling automation, and lab operators.
