About

These days I’m a software engineer, but I’m more of a sysadmin who handles the patching and upgrading of legacy software, support requests of a more technical nature, a lot of SQL Server work, application and API security, creating Microsoft Azure services and technical documentation.

For about seven years prior to that, I worked in the healthcare industry, mainly developing clinical integration, messaging and monitoring systems. It was mainly MVC applications and APIs based on the .NET Framework, jQuery and some SQL Server work.

I graduated in 2014 with a Masters’ degree in Computer security, at the University of South Wales, for which I studied a wide range of things, including computer forensics, operating system internals, malware analysis, networking, Python and .NET development (and a little bit of C++) and cryptography. During that time I also helped to establish Security-Forensics Ltd, which provided services for small businesses.

Technologies

  • .NET Framework
  • SQL Server
  • Microsoft Azure
  • GitHub, including wiki and deployment pipelines

  2. hello. I am unable to see anything under ‘info’ tab of wireshark while capturing vnc packets. Any idea why?

    • The ‘Info’ tab? Are you referring to one of the three windows in Wireshark? I can think of three reasons nothing’s showing:
      1. Are you running Wireshark as root/admin?
      2. Are you capturing on the right interface?
      3. Is the ‘Filter’ box clear?

    I love the links you posted on the Catholic Things. They are truly a great selection of sites to show the beauty and wisdom of Catholic faith. With your intelligence, it is a great witness to the world. I have book marked your page for quick references. Thanks.

    • I hope the links are useful to you as they were to me. Coincidentally, I’m typing up my journal entry for my first day at Lourdes, and have taken some nice pictures there.
