I run a small security practice, spend too much time inside terminals, and write here about the infrastructure I build, the systems I take apart, and the projects in between.
I'm Adel, a Data & AI leader at BASF, driving global teams, data products, and platform transformation initiatives. Before that, I spent 13 years in cybersecurity across offensive security, incident response, cyber defense, and security leadership, helping organizations stay ahead of threats.
Outside client work, I'm usually neck-deep in a Linux box somewhere, provisioning cloud infrastructure, or fixing something I broke the night before. This site is where the smaller, more personal version of that work lives.
Red team engagements, penetration testing, and adversary simulation — finding the path an attacker would actually take, not just the checklist.
Hands-on Linux and cloud work — provisioning, hardening, and occasionally rebuilding infrastructure on OCI after I've broken it myself.
Digital forensics, incident response, and zero trust architecture — the unglamorous side of keeping systems standing after something goes wrong.
