CURRENT FOCUS

Cloud platform

Backend services, ERP integration, user management, payment gateway integration and subscription workflows.

APPLICATION

Selfmade.ninja

KYC verification, payments, subscriptions, account lifecycle and access-control engineering belong to the application layer.

Application and cloud-platform concerns are separated. KYC belongs to Selfmade.ninja; it is not a cloud-platform component.

ERP LAYER

Frappe / ERPNext

Business workflows, backend modules, persistence, APIs and operational integration.

SECURITY LAYER

Trust boundaries

Authorization is enforced at the backend; payment and identity state transitions are treated as security-sensitive.

Security Center
SECURITY ENGINEERING

Security Center

Security work presented as engineering practice: attack surface, controls, trust boundaries and operational resilience.

Engineering Notes
Build the system. Attack the system. Fix what you find.

A vulnerability is rarely a single bad line. It is a trust boundary that
nobody wrote down - so I write them down: what crosses it, who verifies
it, and what the code does when that check cannot be completed.

The answer to the last question decides everything. A flow that fails
open under load is not a resilient flow; it is an unauthenticated one
waiting for a busy afternoon.

Current focus
  - Web and API penetration testing, with emphasis on authorization
  - Payment, identity and access-control flows that must fail closed
  - CTF challenge design and event-grade challenge infrastructure
  - Reproducible security lab environments

The interface is the operating system. The content is the portfolio.

Let's build something that fails closed.

Available for security assessment and penetration testing engagements, CTF challenge authoring and event infrastructure, and product engineering on payment, identity and access-control surfaces — including security review of an existing codebase or third-party integration.
