🔗 dC2 — Decentralized Blockchain C2 Server
Decentralized Command & Control server leveraging Ethereum smart contracts for covert communication. Exfiltrates data via
eth_callto blend with legitimate blockchain traffic, making traditional C2 detection ineffective.
Stack: Solidity C++ Python Ethereum Web3.py
Status: Completed
🧠 NeuralRE — AI-Augmented Reverse Engineering
Agentic pipeline combining radare2 + r2pipe with locally-hosted LLMs (via Ollama) for automated binary analysis, deobfuscation, and vulnerability pattern discovery. Jinja2-templated prompt chains for structured analysis output.
Stack: Python radare2 r2pipe Ollama Jinja2 LLMs
Status: Active
⚛️ QML-IDS — Quantum Machine Learning IDS
Variational Quantum Circuit (VQC) based intrusion detection system benchmarked on NSL-KDD dataset. Achieved 88.5% accuracy (F1=0.876) vs classical SVM at 93.5% accuracy (AUC=0.979). Explores the viability of quantum approaches for cybersecurity classification.
Stack: Qiskit Python NSL-KDD VQC
Status: Completed
🔍 LogLurker — Unsupervised Log Anomaly Detection
Unsupervised anomaly detection pipeline for system logs using PyTorch and HuggingFace transformers with local LLM integration. Detects subtle behavioral deviations without labeled training data.
Stack: Python PyTorch HuggingFace Local LLMs
Status: Active
🛡️ GhostGate — Multi-Protocol Honeypot
High-fidelity C++ honeypot emulating multiple network protocols (SSH, FTP, HTTP) via WinSock2. Real-time attack pattern logging and alerting to study threat actor TTPs.
Stack: C++17 WinSock2 Networking
Status: Production-ready
🤖 AgentForge — AI Agent Marketplace
Solo-founded platform for discovering, deploying, and monetizing AI agents. Full-stack with semantic vector search via pgvector for agent discovery and FastAPI backend. Started Jan 2026.
Stack: Next.js FastAPI PostgreSQL pgvector Tailwind CSS
Status: Active development — MVP phase
