./about

I'm Max Harari, an enthusiastic cybersecurity student known for my friendly attitude and humor. Currently pursuing a BS degree in Cybersecurity at Stevens Institute of Technology, I'm passionate about understanding both offensive and defensive security techniques.

My journey began with a curiosity about how systems work and how they can be compromised. This led me to develop educational tools that demonstrate network vulnerabilities, supply chain attacks, and advanced obfuscation techniques—always with the goal of improving security awareness and protection.

Beyond my technical pursuits, I value giving back to the community through volunteer work and sharing knowledge. I believe effective security comes from understanding both the technical aspects and the human elements of cybersecurity.

PHILOSOPHY
"Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster, and if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you." - Friedrich Nietzsche

APPROACH
I combine offensive security knowledge with defensive
strategies to create complete security solutions.
Always learning, always adapting.
