BADQt

functional pentesting device

A low-cost alternative to a BadUSB hacking tool, built using open-source libraries and a low-cost microcontroller (Adafruit Trinkey). Custom scripting syntax based on the Hak5 Rubber Ducky payload language, with support for keyboard, mouse, and consumer control inputs. A small OLED screen visualizes and analyzes attacks in real time.

Cyber Range

personal training environment

A personal cyber range built on Akamai Linode VPCs to simulate enterprise network environments. Intentionally vulnerable services let me practice Red Team attack chains, while Blue Team monitoring with Falco, Grafana, and Prometheus catches every move. The setup lets me run through full attack chains including network reconnaissance, privilege escalation, and lateral movement, then develop detection rules to identify each stage.

Ubuntu Server, Akamai Linode, Falco, Grafana, Prometheus
