Hi there πŸ‘‹ I'm Issah (but you can call me John)

πŸ’» Professional Bug Creator & Finder | Python Enthusiast | Professional Homelab Overbuilder

"I spend my days writing code that works and finding ways to break code that shouldn't. πŸ‡°πŸ‡ͺ

Welcome to my digital playground! I'm a tech enthusiast from Kenya who accidentally fell in love with breaking things (the legal kind, I promise).

What I'm Currently Breaking/Building

Cybersecurity Adventures

  • Web App Security: I politely ask websites for their databases using Burp Suite & SQLMap
  • Bug Bounty Hunting: Getting paid to do digital archaeology with subfinder & nikto
  • Penetration Testing: My computer now runs more Linux distros than my brain can handle
  • Training: Completed Mastercard Cybersecurity & Cisco Ethical "Houting" (typo intended) courses

Python Shenanigans

  • Backend Development: Learning Django REST Framework (it's resting, I'm working)
  • Automation: Built a progress tracker to track my progress in building progress trackers 🐒
  • Fundamentals: Strong grasp of if, else, and the ever-confusing elif

Tech Stack & Tools I Actually Use

Category My Arsenal
πŸ’» Programming Python, JavaScript, C# (the holy trinity of "it worked on my machine")
πŸ” Security Burp Suite, SQLmap, Nikto, and 3 different Linux distros to feel fancy
🌐 Web Dev Django REST Framework, HTML, CSS, React, Node.js
βš™οΈ Systems Linux (all the flavors), WSL, Networking, Virtualization (homelab go brrr)
🧰 Development Git, VS Code, JSON, and copious amounts of coffee

Recent Victories (aka "Things That Finally Worked")

  • Completed courses without falling asleep (mostly)
  • Started bug bounty hunting - currently at "finding bugs" phase, "getting bounty" phase pending
  • Built a progress tracker that tracks my progress in building progress trackers (it's meta)
  • Set up penetration testing environment (my computer now has more VMs than friends)

Currently Learning

  • How to pronounce "Django" correctly
  • Advanced ways to break into things (ethically, mom!)
  • That sleep is important (I keep ignoring this lesson)
  • Bug bounty reconnaissance (the art of digital stalk-- I mean, research)

Let's Connect (or don't, I'm not your manager)

"Building secure systems while continuously learning - one vulnerability at a time. Also, have you tried turning it off and on again?"

⭐ Pro tip: My repositories contain actual code! Mostly. Some of it even works!

P.S. If you find any vulnerabilities in my code, please don't exploit them - we can split the bug bounty 60/40 (I get 60 for the emotional damage).
