Hey I am Tom Niklas Ludwig, a cybersecurity enthuasist and CTF player from Germany.
Usually I participate in CTFs with one of my teams but occasionally I will do a CTF on my own. This blog is intended to be used in that case.
socials
My twitter handle is @hexp, I primarily use twitter to stay up-to-date to various infosec news, and follow the people I find inspiring.
Mastodon
In an attempt to stop using the Big Five or Big Tech in general I started to use mastodon. I’ve already replaced Whatsapp by Signal and stopped using Facebook and Instagram. However while mastodon is quite active in the german infosec community it doesn’t replace twitter for me yet. My handle is hexp@chaos.social.
TryHackMe
I started my journey on THM recently but since then I was really active. Here is a link to my profile.
HackTheBox
HTB is where I started to learn most things about pentesting and I still try to finish a machine once a week. Here is a link to my profile.
Github
I use github privately pretty much exclusively for non-public repositories and to share code/writeups with my teams, but for the sake of completeness I will drop my handle aswell: h3xp
