I. About

Hello there 👋 I'm Emmanuel Musau. a cybersecurity enthusiast and penetration tester with a strong passion for ethical hacking, exploit development, and web security.

• I specialize in offensive security, actively researching vulnerabilities, and participating in CTFs and bug bounty programs to sharpen my skills. I have experience in web & network penetration testing, vulnerability research and automating security tasks using Python and Bash scripting.

• When I’m not breaking into systems (legally, of course 😆), I’m testing security tools, competing in CTFs, and diving into security reports.
