Hello! I'm Sam Luker, a 17-year-old cybersecurity enthusiast currently pursuing my T-Level in Cybersecurity (Pearson course) in Oxfordshire.

My passion lies in Penetration Testing and Network Security. I'm dedicated to understanding how systems can be compromised and, more importantly, how to protect them.

Through my studies and hands-on practice, I'm building expertise in threat mitigation, vulnerability assessment, and security testing methodologies. I believe in continuous learning and staying updated with the latest CVEs and security trends.
