Welcome to Tanuki Infosec

About

In the world of cybersecurity, nothing stays still for long. Threats evolve, defenses adapt, and curiosity is often the best tool we have. Tanuki Infosec was built to document that journey — my personal path through the ever-changing landscape of cybersecurity and penetration testing.

The name Tanuki comes from Japanese folklore: a shape-shifting creature known for its cleverness and adaptability. Those same traits define life in infosec — the constant need to think differently, stay unpredictable, and learn faster than the adversary.

Here you’ll find a mix of technical posts, lab walkthroughs, and reflections on real-world security challenges. From building SIEM dashboards and testing exploits to exploring new certifications and tools, this space is equal parts study journal, research log, and creative outlet.

Cybersecurity isn’t just about defending systems — it’s about understanding how they fail, and how humans and technology interact under pressure. Tanuki Infosec is where I explore those intersections, one experiment at a time.

Stay curious. Stay adaptable.
Welcome to the hunt.
