Welcome to Maxwell CTI!

Hello and welcome! This blog is a documentation of my journey into cybersecurity; as I take classes, attend seminars, participate in cyber ranges and HTB/THM-style labs, and pursue my own interests, I will document the things I learn and work on here.

As I work on projects, I will document and publish what I learn. There are many pages in progress (i.e., with bad grammar, syntax, incomplete information, etc.), but I try to keep things tight and professional.

New here?

Below is a list of the pages I've updated recently; you can also search from the top right, or scroll through everything on the left.

Still not sure where to start? Why not check out my guide on securing email with SPF, DKIM, and DMARC?

Recently Modified Pages

Take this with a grain of salt; I synchronize my Obsidian vault between devices with Resilio Sync, which can set an artificial "last modified" timestamp.
