Welcome to my security blog! This is where I’ll be sharing my journey in cybersecurity, including CTF writeups, technical notes, and research findings.

What to Expect

Here’s what you can look forward to on this blog:

  • CTF Writeups: Detailed solutions to interesting CTF challenges
  • Technical Tutorials: Guides on penetration testing, reverse engineering, and more
  • Tool Reviews: Analysis of security tools I use in my work
  • Research Notes: Findings from malware analysis and security research

import socket

def port_scan(target, ports):
    """Simple port scanner"""
    open_ports = []
    for port in ports:
        sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
        sock.settimeout(1)
        result = sock.connect_ex((target, port))
        if result == 0:
            open_ports.append(port)
        sock.close()
    return open_ports

if __name__ == "__main__":
    target = "127.0.0.1"
    ports = range(1, 1025)
    print(f"Scanning {target}...")
    print(f"Open ports: {port_scan(target, ports)}")
