Hardware & IT Experiments

The Objective: Mobile network auditing and cryptographic handshake capture.

The Execution: Built a covert mobile rig concealing a laptop in a backpack. Tunneled in via SSH over a mobile hotspot to intercept 802.11 handshakes using aircrack-ng on Kali Linux. Attempted cryptographic hash cracking utilizing John the Ripper.

The Objective: Deliver stable, high-draw 12V power for automotive tooling outside a commercial lab environment.

The Execution: Reverse-engineered and spliced an old PC power supply (PSU) to successfully power a heavy-duty car tire inflator. Included teardown, rewiring, and custom soldering.

The Objective: System rescue and registry navigation during the early 2010s worm era.

The Execution: Built custom bootable USB/CD recovery drives to bypass corrupted OS environments, rescue isolated data, and manually purge autorun.inf worm payloads directly from the registry.
