Research

I have a strong interest in identifying and analyzing malicious or unwanted network traffic, with a particular focus on discovering and blocking harmful domains at the system level. One of the ways I pursue this is through maintaining curated hosts files designed to proactively prevent access to known malicious, deceptive, or undesirable domains.

I actively contribute to and maintain multiple hosts-based blocklists, combining manual research with real-world threat observations. These projects are intended to provide lightweight, transparent protection for users who prefer simple, effective, and auditable security solutions.

Below are some examples where I am providing screenshots of the unwanted page and other technical information along with their timestamp of when encountered.
