I like to turn ideas into real, running systems. On this page, you'll find a selection of labs and projects where I've worked on networking, system administration, automation and security. Each project is an opportunity for me to experiment, break things, fix them, and document what I've learned along the way.
In March 2026, I participated in Operation Bellatrix, a national online Capture The Flag challenge organized by the French Cyber Defense Command (COMCYBER) as part of the 'Orion' Jeunesse 2026 exercise. I finished 196th out of 2,000 participants, after tackling challenges in OSINT investigations, counter-disinformation, image analysis, and technical cybersecurity.
Successful completion of the Cisco CCNA 1 – Introduction to Networks module, covering foundational networking concepts (network architectures, protocols, IPv4/IPv6 addressing, Ethernet, switching) and basic configuration/troubleshooting of routers and switches under Cisco IOS.
Hands-on lab where I deployed a simple PHP/MySQL web application on Azure using a full cloud-native pipeline. I set up a bastion VM, containerized the app with Docker, built and pushed images to Azure Container Registry, configured an Azure DevOps pipeline with a self-hosted agent, and deployed the container to Azure Container Apps with a managed MySQL database.
Design and deployment of a full enterprise network infrastructure from scratch. We virtualized an OPNsense firewall and router on VMware, configured DHCP, VLANs and firewall rules to segment and secure the network. I also configured a legacy HP ProCurve 2810 switch via Telnet, applying port-based VLAN assignments and access rules.
Follow-up of the TacTic Brother enterprise network project, focused on operations and monitoring. We designed and deployed a full RUN stack: Grafana + Prometheus for NOC dashboards, Loki for firewall log centralization, GLPI for ITSM and Wazuh as a SOC-lite.
End-of-year team project: design and deployment of the backend, infrastructure and CI/CD for a turn-based creature battle web application. My scope: network architecture, secure exposure, GitHub Actions pipelines, monitoring (Prometheus/Grafana) and deployment on the school lab infrastructure.
Regularly solving CTF challenges and security labs focused on web exploitation, reverse engineering and basic crypto. I document each challenge in a private Obsidian knowledge base with methodology, tooling and remediation.
Development of an advanced ESP32‑based Wi‑Fi sniffer able to capture 802.11 frames, rotate channels, track unique devices and compute live statistics (RSSI, channel, packet type). Includes configurable modes to log all packets, only management frames or unique MACs.
Deployment of a self‑hosted Git forge (Forgejo) on a Debian Trixie VM running on VMware, without Docker. I installed and configured Forgejo as a system service, handled reverse proxy and HTTPS, set up repositories, users and access keys, and documented backup and update procedures.
