Recent Work

1) Over‑engineered Static Site behind Function & Deception (OCI)

Built a static website that sits behind an OCI Function performing “friend/foe” checks: enrich requester, run threat intel gates, then serve content. The Function is behind API Gateway → WAF → Cloudflare (zero trust edge).

Edge Intelligence: passive fingerprinting, geo, ASN, Tor/Proxy signals
Controls: Cloudflare Rules + OCI WAF + Gateway request validation
Resilience: object storage hosting; minimal attack surface

2) Project Two

Placeholder for another delightfully over‑complicated defense. Maybe OTel‑driven threat maps or Sigma → custom LQL backend for OCI Logging.

3) Project Three

Placeholder for adversary emulation + automated purple‑team exercises.
