I'm Jiwan Hamal — a second-semester computer science student standing at the entrance of a very deep rabbit hole.
The rabbit hole is called cybersecurity. And honestly? I still don't know exactly where I'll end up inside it. Penetration testing, digital forensics, threat intelligence, reverse engineering — there are too many paths, and I'm only just beginning to see them.
What I do know is I'm drawn to understanding how things work before thinking about how they can fail. That means building a foundation first: learning C, getting comfortable with networks, understanding why Kali Linux ships with the tools it does.
Ask me in a year which direction I've picked. For now — I'm still reading the map.
Tools I'm picking up. All works in progress.
Learning to speak to the machine directly. Pointers, memory allocation, and the joy of a segfault at 2 am.
TCP/IP, packets, routing, protocols. Understanding how data travels before thinking about how to stop it.
The terminal is home now. Learning the filesystem, the tools, and the mindset of an OS built for thinking offensively.
Commits, branches, diffs. Tracking progress in code the same way you'd log changes to a system.
Nothing deployed yet. The lab is still being set up.
Something is forming here. Not ready yet.
Another idea waiting to be executed.
// First commit incoming. No ETA yet. Progress > perfection.
