I'm Akum4_ask, a cybersecurity enthusiast whose journey started with a simple question: How do computers work? That curiosity led me down the path of exploring systems, security, and reverse engineering.
I love solving CTF challenges, building security-focused projects, and constantly learning new ways to strengthen digital security. From analyzing vulnerabilities to experimenting with different attack and defense strategies, I'm always looking for innovative ways to push my skills further.
Understanding the intricate layers of cybersecurity isn't just a passion for me—it's an obsession.
Began my tech journey by exploring custom Android ROMs, learning about system modifications and firmware architecture
After an ambitious attempt to build my own custom ROM ended in failure, I redirected my curiosity toward cybersecurity fundamentals
