About Me
Hey there! š Iām Christian Victor, a 19-year-old cybersecurity enthusiast from Nigeria, currently living in ÅĆ³dÅŗ, Poland. Right now, Iām officially a management student at AHE Universityābecause who doesnāt need to manage something? But letās be real, my heart is all about the thrill of cybersecurity.
My Journey Into Hacking
The love for hacking? It started young. I was the kid who set up the family WiFiā¦ and then tried to hack it. (Nothing says āfun Saturdayā like almost locking everyone out of the internet, right?) My curiosity quickly turned into a passion for breaking things to understand how they work, and eventually, that became a career path in cybersecurity, specifically Red Teaming. Why Red Teaming? Because blue is a great color, but nothing beats the excitement of almost getting caught.
Skills & Interests (Yes, I Actually Have Those)
I’ve been hitting the books and the virtual hacking grounds to build my skills:
Capture the Flags (CTFs): Iām an avid CTF player, and letās just say I have a knack for landing in the top 10%. Apparently, my brain just likes puzzlesā¦ or I just donāt know when to quit.
Platforms Conquered: Hack The Box, TryHackMe, Proving Grounds, Pentester Labsāyou name it, Iāve probably logged some intense hours there. Think of it as gaming, but with more code and less respawn.
Technical Know-How: Networking, web and wireless security, Linux admin, and even a bit of cloud security. Add Active Directory, and weāre looking at a pretty solid cyber toolbelt.
Security Frameworks: Iām well-versed in frameworks like OWASP Top 10, Microsoft SDL, MITRE ATT&CK, and the SANS Top 25. Because who doesnāt love reading a good list of vulnerabilities over breakfast?
Content & Community
Iām not just in it for the codeāI love sharing what I know! Iāve started creating content, including cheat sheets, tips, methodologies, and maybe some YouTube tutorials. Who knows, you might catch me on a screen near you explaining the āmagicā behind brute-force attacks or why certain exploits are chefās kiss beautiful.
Future Goals
First up: getting my bachelorās in management, because it sounds fancy and hey, might come in handy. After that, Iām aiming for an internship at a top cybersecurity firm and then a masterās in cybersecurity. The ultimate goal? To mix business savvy with tech skills and help companies up their security game, ideally with fewer PowerPoint slides and more hands-on action.
