Systems & Networks expert › focused on cybersecurity, offensive & defensive · Paris, FR
A prism splits light to reveal every color. That is how I approach a system: break it down to understand each weakness, then rebuild it, safer.
My name is Josué Ouedraogo. After a two-year IT degree (BTS SIO) and an expert track at ESGI, I am completing a Master's degree in Systems, Networks & Security (RNCP level 7), with a second year in work-study starting September 2026.
My field ranges from running production infrastructure (Active Directory, VLAN segmentation, EDR, automation) to offensive security: reverse engineering, tool development, CTFs. This dual background lets me think about a system like an attacker while building it like a defender.
My goal: to become a security consultant and architect, mobile and independent, able to step in wherever infrastructure makes the difference.
Each module is a field I practice, from pure offense to governance.
A selection of work, from offensive development to low-level systems.
Multi-agent client-server tool over encrypted TCP sockets (TLS). Modules: keylogger, hashdump (SAM/shadow), screenshots, webcam stream, interactive shell. Antivirus evasion, Docker deployment, pytest test suite.
x64 crackmes built without external libraries, protected by one-way hashing. A binary patcher written in assembly: surgical, size-preserving modification of a target. Backed by analysis writeups.
Proxmox server with an OPNsense firewall as the subnet entry point. Provisioning of Debian LXC containers: AdGuard Home (DNS), Passbolt (passwords), Firefly III. Documented for a full rebuild.
A bare-metal operating system focused on memory safety: memory management, allocator, raw pointers, custom panic handler. Working within no_std constraints and unsafe blocks.
WAN design for more than 1,000 hosts: VLSM addressing plan, OSPF routing and a structured network security plan. An end-to-end approach to segmentation and resilience.
Permanent personal lab: Proxmox hypervisor, ELK stack for log collection and analysis, automation with Ansible. A testing ground for detection and hardening.
