I'm a security-minded engineer pursuing my Master's in Artificial Intelligence, specializing in autonomous vehicle flight security. My work sits at the intersection of AI, cloud security, and autonomous systems.
My Mission: To help shape the future of secure autonomous flight, ensuring that AI-driven systems are resilient, trustworthy, and safe.
This repository contains labs, tools, and resources for DevSecOps, cloud security, and autonomous systems:
- config-rules-terraform/ - Terraform templates for AWS Config Rules across multi-region AWS Organizations
- my-arsenal-of-aws-security-tools/ - Curated collection of open-source AWS security tools and frameworks
- AI Forensics Labs - Hands-on security testing and adversarial analysis exercises
- Autonomous Flight Security - Research and tools for secure drone platform development
