Hi there! I'm Chantel — or 'signed_Ro0t' if you know me in the hacker space. Welcome to my little corner of the net.
I approach hacking and learning with one core belief: we all start from the same place — knowing nothing. To me, that's not scary; it's exciting. It means every skill, every trick, every "aha!" moment is something you earn along the way.
Here, you'll find me exploring both red and blue team topics, sharing what I'm learning, and hopefully sparking a bit of curiosity in you too. Whether you're here to read my blog, check out my work as a hacker/writer, or just have a good snoop, I hope you leave with a spark of inspiration… or at least a smile.

Everyone has their own reasons for entering the ethical-hacking world and I wouldn't have it...
