BOTH SIDES OF THE WIRE.
I'm Aylen — a cybersecurity student based in Spain, drawn to the exact middle between building things and breaking them.
Red team work taught me to think like an attacker: patient, skeptical, allergic to assumptions. Blue team work taught me the other half — what's worth defending, and why the boring details are the ones that save you. I'm not an expert in either yet. I'm a student of both, and I honestly prefer it that way.
Day to day that means networking labs, scripts that parse things nobody asked them to parse, CTF notes filling up faster than I can index them — and a camera that comes along for the walk home.
Offensive. Thinking like an attacker to learn where systems actually give up.
Defensive. Learning what's worth protecting — and why it's harder than it looks.
BUILT, BROKEN, DOCUMENTED.
THE STACK, HONESTLY.
INDEXED BY CATEGORY
* “comfortable” ≠ “expert” — the distance between the two is where I like to work.
THE PATH SO FAR.
EDUCATION & CERTIFICATIONS — 2024 → NOW
GIT / GITHUB
I decided to make a change in my life and get closer to the life I'd always dreamed of. Let's start with the basics.
HTML / CSS
Continued developing my programming foundations through courses and practical exercises.
PYTHON OFFENSIVE
I was really interested in red teaming, so I decided that cybersecurity was the right path for me
MY FIRST WEB
Turning what I learned into actual software.
Django · OOP · React · Pyhton Web · JavaScript
RAWINPUT
A home for projects, notes and experiments. Updated whenever something breaks interestingly.
THE OTHER HALF.
MUSIC · PHOTOGRAPHY · EXPERIMENTS
Security is half the practice. This is the other half — the part that doesn't need to compile. Photography from walks home, sound from late-night sketches, and small experiments that exist purely because they can.
UNDO
I started playing guitar when I was very young; I wrote a lot of songs, but none of them had ever gone as far as UNDO. Noisy:Fun is a musical project formed by my friends and me. The release of this EP was the result of hard work.
HEADPHONES RECOMMENDED
LET'S BUILD SOMETHING.
I'm open to collaborations, CTF teams, internships, and long conversations about strange packets — or photography, or both at once.
