Message

At Maroc DataCenter, I evaluated a machine-learning network intrusion detection system using benchmark datasets and real-world traffic. I compared XGBoost, Random Forest, SVM, and KNN, focusing on deployment issues such as feature drift and covariate shift.

For my end-of-year project, I architected and deployed a containerized Security Operations Center using Docker multi-container networks. I integrated Wazuh Manager, Wazuh Dashboard, and Suricata IDS for real-time traffic analysis, endpoint monitoring, and log visualization.

In security research, I exploited memory corruption vulnerabilities and used ROP chains to bypass protections including ASLR and NX. I also analyzed stripped binaries across x86, x86-64, and ARM architectures, and led a team of five in competitive CTF environments.
