Hello there. I'm Kyle, a Security Consultant and Pentester focused on identifying weaknesses before they become incidents.
My work centres on technical security assessments, translating complex risk into clear, actionable outcomes. Secure should mean something measurable, not just compliant.
Outside of client engagements, I am usually exploring something new, chasing CTF flags, or going down unnecessary technical rabbit holes in the name of "research".
