      <description>&lt;pre tabindex=&#34;0&#34;&gt;&lt;code&gt;Last Updated 2026-02-28&#xA;Here, I&amp;#39;m explaining how I solved my issues. &#xA;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;h2 id=&#34;why-&#34;&gt;Why ?&lt;/h2&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This project is a direct continuation of my Wifijammer experiments. I have a strong interest in wireless communications and protocols like Wi-Fi and BLE, which drives me to test these vulnerabilities firsthand.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;Moving forward, I plan to explore more advanced attacks and further deepen my understanding of these protocols to better comprehend how modern wireless security layers interact.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wireless Security Auditing.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;https://github.com/vv4lheim/Master-Secom/blob/main/SECOM-2.pdf&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;See PDF Report&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This report explores the vulnerabilities of IoT devices through SDR techniques. Conducted at Sorbonne University, the project addresses the inherent risks of radio communications, where signals propagate in open space, making them susceptible to interception and jamming.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;The study utilizes a Raspberry Pi platform equipped with RTL-SDR and PlutoSDR hardware to analyze devices operating on various frequencies. Key experiments include:&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;ul&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Replay Attacks&lt;/strong&gt;: Intercepting and re-emitting fixed codes to control smart plugs and roller shutters using tools like 433Utils and URH.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;False Data Injection Attacks&lt;/strong&gt;: Manipulating weather station displays by injecting forged temperature frames.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Advanced Signal Analysis&lt;/strong&gt;: Moving to the 2.442 GHz band to reverse-engineer drone communications using GNU Radio, which involved bypassing XOR encryption and calculating CRC to retrieve a hidden flag.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;/ul&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;The project demonstrates that many consumer IoT devices remain fragile due to the use of simple modulations (ASK/OOK) and the absence of protective mechanisms such as rolling codes or robust encryption.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

We dissected an STM32F4-based device to understand its internal logic and communication:&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;ul&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Firmware Extraction&lt;/strong&gt;: Interfaced with the STM32F4 microcontroller via debug ports to successfully dump the internal memory and retrieve the binary payload.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Protocol Analysis&lt;/strong&gt;: Identified and decoded TLV (Type-Length-Value) command structures used by the firmware to exchange data with external peripherals.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Wifi beaconing</title>

      <description>&lt;pre tabindex=&#34;0&#34;&gt;&lt;code&gt;Maj 2026-02-01&#xA;I&amp;#39;ll post the full code on GitHub with more technical details. &#xA;Here, I&amp;#39;m explaining how I solved my issues. &#xA;I&amp;#39;m learning to use aircrack so, &#xA;I will not implement deauthentication to not lost my time.&#xA;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;hr&gt;&#xA;&lt;h3 id=&#34;wireless-security-research--80211&#34;&gt;Wireless Security Research : 802.11&lt;/h3&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;I wanted to learn the basics of WiFi network attacks, so I started experimenting with deauthentication and beaconing. Beaconing is interesting because it relies on user interaction. I enjoy creating personalized clones that mimic real-world services; for example, it was fun rebuilding a fake Moodle login page for a French university. After using Aircrack-ng for deauthentication, I decided to focus less on the attack itself and more on improving the realism of my phishing pages. My next steps are to link these fake Access Points (APs) to the pages and implement a small DNS service to redirect all connections to the correct authentication portal.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Autonomous design, construction, and operation of an enterprise-grade infrastructure.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href=&#34;https://github.com/vv4lheim/Master-Infra/blob/main/Infra.pdf&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;See PDF Report&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;h3 id=&#34;project-description&#34;&gt;Project Description&lt;/h3&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This project moved beyond theory to gain hands-on experience with physical hardware. The objective was to build a complete enterprise network from scratch, focusing on security through strict network segmentation. By creating logical separation between administrative, user, and server domains, I ensured granular control over all traffic flows.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;Key components deployed within this segmented architecture include:&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;ul&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Security &amp;amp; Observability:&lt;/strong&gt; Implemented a full SIEM stack using &lt;code&gt;Elastic (ELK)&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code&gt;Fleet&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code&gt;Elastic Defend&lt;/code&gt;, and &lt;code&gt;Auditd&lt;/code&gt; for centralized logging and alerting.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Identity &amp;amp; Collaboration:&lt;/strong&gt; Deployed &lt;code&gt;LDAP/LAM&lt;/code&gt; for centralized identity management and &lt;code&gt;Nextcloud&lt;/code&gt; for secure collaboration.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Perimeter Security:&lt;/strong&gt; Configured an &lt;code&gt;OPNsense&lt;/code&gt; firewall for network control and a &lt;code&gt;WireGuard&lt;/code&gt; VPN for secure remote access.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Automation:&lt;/strong&gt; Used &lt;code&gt;Ansible&lt;/code&gt; for streamlined deployment and configuration management.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;/ul&gt;&#xA;&lt;hr&gt;&#xA;&lt;h3 id=&#34;added-value--professional-objectives&#34;&gt;Added Value &amp;amp; Professional Objectives&lt;/h3&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;Working with real hardware required addressing complex operational issues, such as service interoperability and network misconfigurations, providing a full lifecycle experience:&lt;/p&gt;</description>

I applied a rigorous end-to-end methodology:&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;ul&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Reconnaissance &amp;amp; Scanning:&lt;/strong&gt; Used &lt;code&gt;Nmap&lt;/code&gt; for network mapping and service discovery.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Web Analysis:&lt;/strong&gt; Performed fuzzing and application penetration testing using &lt;code&gt;Burp Suite&lt;/code&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Exploitation:&lt;/strong&gt; Executed brute-force attacks via &lt;code&gt;Hydra&lt;/code&gt;, researched CVEs on &lt;code&gt;ExploitDB&lt;/code&gt;, and performed exploitation with &lt;code&gt;Metasploit&lt;/code&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Reporting:&lt;/strong&gt; Authored a detailed audit report covering vulnerabilities, impact analysis, and remediation recommendations.&lt;/li&gt;&#xA;&lt;/ul&gt;&#xA;&lt;hr&gt;&#xA;&lt;h3 id=&#34;added-value--professional-objectives&#34;&gt;Added Value &amp;amp; Professional Objectives&lt;/h3&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;This experience allowed me to consolidate a strong foundation for my cybersecurity career:&lt;/p&gt;</description>

I am currently particularly interested in hardware, and this project allows me to work directly with real machines.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;h2 id=&#34;current-architecture&#34;&gt;Current Architecture&lt;/h2&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;I recently purchased a mini PC that currently acts as my web server, with services exposed through a reverse proxy. The entire infrastructure is built using only open-source solutions.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
