# About me

## Who am I?

Hi, I'm Cajac! 👋

I'm a threat hunter by day and a CTF-player by night. I'm a cybersecurity enthusiast and perpetual learner interested in most things cybersecurity.

I'm aspiring to be a purple teamer, practicing both offensive and defensive techniques. I like both theoretical analysis and practical hands-on hacking.&#x20;

I'm based in Sweden.

## About the handle

What does 'Cajac' mean?

Well, nothing as far as I know. Due to lack of imagination I wrote a small script that generated 5-character [palindromes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palindrome) to use as possible a hacker handle. Cajac was the chosen result.

## What else am I up to?

### CTF platforms

I spend a fair amount of my free time learning new things and fine-tuning my procedures on several CTF and wargames sites, including for example:

* [picoCTF/CyLab Security Academy](https://learn.cylabacademy.org/users/Cajac)
* [TryHackMe](https://tryhackme.com/p/Cajac)
* [HackTheBox](https://app.hackthebox.com/users/48189)
* OffSec's Proving Grounds
* Pwn.college
* Root Me
* We Chall
* PortSwigger's Web Security Academy
* CryptoHack

### GitHub

Most of my CTF-writeups and study notes are collected on GitHub: <https://github.com/Cajac>

A few of the repositories are already public and more are likely coming:

* [picoCTF-Writeups](https://github.com/Cajac/picoCTF-Writeups)
* [TryHackMe-Writeups](https://github.com/Cajac/TryHackMe-Writeups)

Feel free to check them out if you like!

### YouTube

I collect and create IT security-related playlists on my YouTube-channel to facilitate my learning: [@cajac\_yt](https://www.youtube.com/@cajac_yt).

Currently I have more than 400 playlists related to cyber security and programming. Topics such as Threat hunting, Cyber threat intelligence, Capture the flag competitions, Wargames, Penetration-testing, Red teaming, PowerShell, Python, Reverse engineering, Malware, Blue teaming, Digital forensics, Open-source intelligence, DevOps, and Hacking.

I don't have, and don't plan to release, any videos created by myself though.
