After transitioning from a career in Policing, I found cybersecurity. By training myself up on Youtube and sitting a couple of certification exams, I was able to land a job as a Junior GRC analyst at Immersive Labs.

Allot has changed since then, where I’ve taken my intelligence and criminal investigation experience I got in Policing, and my criminology and psychology knowledge I gained through my degree and brought it into cybersecurity - by becoming a Cyber Threat Intelligence Researcher.

As such, my main areas of interest cover cyber threat intelligence, intelligence studies, cybercrime (including cryptocurrencies use in enabling crime), geopolitics, and reverse engineering - particularly RATS and stealers. I also have a healthy interest in red teaming through threat led testing, using adversarial TTPs to map attack flows for detection engineering.

In my spare time, I love to read and study treatise on hisotry, philosophy, and warfare - like the Art of War, The Prince, Meditations, and the works of Cassius Dio. I’m also a massive Warhammer nerd and have been building, painting, and playing the game for over 13 years.

I have established this blog as a place to conduct research, analyse malware, and share threat intelligence. Any opinions expressed in this blog are solely my own and do not represent my employer in any way.

If you want to see any research I’ve published under Immersive’s Container 7 (C7) brand, feel free to review the Container 7 Website. A standout includes an analysis of the ZEROLOT wiper, used by the Sandworm APT.
