About Me

red@ops:~/$ whoami

-> Known as BaeSenseii (used to be called xxbaemaxx, but it kinda sounds dumb)
-> "Once a techie, always a technie"
-> Worked in the cybersecurity industry, now an academic teaching cybersecurity.
-> Constantly reading up on new tech, and their flaws :)

This is quite frankly my first time blogging and recording my research content (after procrastinating for so long). I am mainly focusing on CTF challenges, and also other stuffs/thoughts on other matters (maybe cybersecurity specific, could be pedagogy specific too, so… :))

To navigate, feel free to look on the left hand sidebar (under ‘Explorer/ctfs’) for more information.

If you can’t see the sidebar, zoom out of your web browser (80% worked for me).

To be honest, I didn’t really expect much because I was just there for the experience.

This was probably one of the first CTFs that inspired me to create a writeup post (mainly because i had first blood on this challenge).
