First-year cybersecurity student at Lancaster University building a public portfolio through ethical labs, CTF competitions, digital forensics, OSINT techniques, and zero trust architecture research.
Brand Principle
"Trust nothing. Verify everything."
Building a public portfolio through ethical labs, technical writeups, and evidence-based cybersecurity learning.
// About
I'm a cybersecurity student at Lancaster University building the MrZeroTrust brand as my public learning portfolio. I enjoy investigation, research, forensic analysis, OSINT techniques, and finding useful information through careful, structured, methodical work.
Before Lancaster, I completed a foundation year in Cybersecurity and Digital Forensics at Middlesex University, then a first year at Manchester Metropolitan University. I chose Lancaster for its teaching quality, NCSC accreditation, and the opportunity to learn from experienced academics and practitioners.
Everything I do is grounded in lawful, ethical practice. I use home labs, CTF platforms, and authorised environments to practise access control, defensive thinking, forensic workflows, secure design, and penetration testing fundamentals. I'm also studying zero trust architecture and following John Kindervag's work on how modern security models can reduce implicit trust.
