I'm A.J, and I'm on a self-directed journey to deepen my understanding of coding, cybersecurity and hacking. This site is both my digital archive and a documentation tool where I chart my progress and reflect on the ups and downs of learning something as complex and dynamic as cybersecurity. This site is a rotating door of what I feel it is asking for and what I build.

Here’s a curated list of free resources that I’ve found invaluable in my cybersecurity education:

  • Cybrary: Offers a vast array of free courses on cybersecurity topics, from beginner to advanced levels.
  • OWASP Cheat Sheet Series: A collection of high-value information on specific cybersecurity topics, great for quick reference.
  • SecurityTube: A free video resource that provides tutorials and lectures on a wide range of security and hacking topics.
  • FreeCodeCamp: Offers extensive free courses on programming and development, which are also fundamental for understanding technical security solutions.
  • Professor Messer: Known for free online training courses that are especially popular for preparing for CompTIA certifications like Security+.
