Still finding my footing in this space.
Been working through high-difficulty geolocation challenges solo — learning a lot, failing a lot, tracking until something clicks.
Not sure who else works like this — patient, slow, detail-first.
If you're out there, I’d value knowing. Even just to follow along.
MetaCTF has joined with BSides Saskatoon again to be our official CTF Partner!
With their generous sponsorship, we're able to hold a CTF for all your hacking needs at the conference.
They have an amazing, user friendly, CTF platform that breaks down complex cybersecurity concepts into engaging challenges that simulate real world scenarios.
We're so gracious that they agreed to sponsor BSides Saskatoon again in 2025 as our official CTF Partner!

🛰️ Weekly OSINT Download – May 27
Signals tracked. Tools tested. Gaps closed.
📍 Applied Recon:
Practiced identity profiling from minimal data: usernames, metadata, old accounts.
Refined solo background check flow — efficient, client-ready, no fluff.
Geolocation drills: worked image verification and failed trails to sharpen instinct and exit discipline.
Began longform narrative analysis — tracking how pacing and structure shape viewer retention and emotional targeting.
🗂️ Signal Shaping:
Studied why 20-min, 3-arc formats dominate high-retention media.
Logged passive audio elements as ambient framing tools.
Tuned voice delivery for clarity and precision — applied to case narration and info drops.
🛠️ In Progress:
CTF prep: US Cyber Games open soon.
Building quiet authority — showing work through process, not hype.
Laying down content as proof-of-skill, not just noise.

Had a fun evening at @bytespeicher doing some #CTF-style hacking (the very minor kind).
I love the small stuff that just works online like https://overthewire.org It's more like small challenges like in Mystery Geocaches. With downloadable full VMs like Mr. Robot I'll spend to much time guessing where the attack vector actually is.
That might be more realistic for real-world hacking, but I'm doing this for fun and my time is limited.

Combining binary reverse engineering and AI / LLMs? I got ghidra & Codeium's Windsurf connected via MCP to do just that.

Been learning OSINT for about two months.
Mostly geolocation so far — image tracing, terrain matching, and narrowing search areas by instinct and satellite.
I’ve started logging field cases on Medium.
Not claiming expertise — just documenting how I work under pressure, and what I see when I slow down.
If you're training too, or want to compare notes, I’m around.
🔧 Join us on June 4th at 19:00 for our upcoming CTF meetup at the space, where we'll have an impromptu session on adversarial interoperability!
We'll be diving into the Duolingo app with the aim of switching its server connection—ultimately setting it up to a proxy that logs intermediary data. Whether you're a beginner or an expert, mark your calendar and join us for an evening of exploration and hacking! ^^

OSIRIS, the student-run #cybersecurity research lab at NYU, is seeking #challenge writers for our upcoming CSAW #CTF later this year! (For those who don't know CSAW, it's one of the largest student-run #cybersec events in the world: https://csaw.io ) Web, #ReverseEngineering, #pwn, and #cryptography challenges are prioritized, and all experience levels welcome. Interested? Shoot me a DM or email osiris@osiris.cyber.nyu.edu.
Just logged Field Case 002 — a geolocation trace from one of OSINT Dojo’s most infamous challenges.
Terrain. Shadow. A river bend that gave it away — if you squinted just right.
Blog’s up for those who like their puzzles dusty and real.

Alright I added a line in my profile:
I have a decade of experience in Minetest CTF.
Maybe someone will employ me given my very high level of expertise.
