Building resilient systems by day, probing their weaknesses by night. From Windows machines to Kubernetes pods, I architect secure infrastructure with a KISS principle mindset.

// Background
I'm Zhivko, a Computer Science student building resilient systems by day and probing their weaknesses by night. My journey began with tearing apart Windows machines, evolved through Linux distro-hopping, and now focuses on architecting secure infrastructure.
// Operations
My homelab is a living lab where I deploy everything from Nextcloud storage to intentionally vulnerable machines for security testing. Through building .NET/Spring APIs and React frontends, I've learned that simplicity beats cleverness.
// Security Focus
Cybersecurity isn't just a career path — it's a mindset. I methodically study OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities through controlled environments, then apply those lessons to harden my systems.
