THE PERSON BEHIND
THE TERMINAL.
The analyst who builds.
I'm Faisal — a cyber security analyst who treats software the way I treat systems: understand the threat model, remove the weak points, ship something that holds up. I pair defensive security work with a builder's habit of shipping full-stack products, increasingly with AI in the loop.
I care about the boring parts that actually keep systems safe — least privilege, patch hygiene, logging you can reason about — and I bring that same discipline to the products I ship.
Threat detection, incident response, and hardening — reducing the blast radius before it matters.
Full-stack products with Next.js and Laravel, shipped fast with AI in the loop.
Writeups, CTFs, and notes from the field — learning in public.
