ramsy.eu
I founded ramsy.eu to pair hands-on security work with tooling we actually use for recon, fuzzing triage, evidence, and reporting.

You Can Have the Dinner
My dad bet me dinner that I couldn't hack a website while we were on holiday. The website was fine. The hospital PACS behind it was open to the internet with about 145,000 studies inside.

Building ChokerJoker, the award winning quarto solver
We built a Quarto bot for a university competition and got a little carried away. It chokes out safe moves, then switches over to a perfect endgame solver.

Building ilia.beer, A "Buy Me a Beer" Platform
I bought ilia.beer on the train home because the domain made me laugh. A few weeks later it was running from a Raspberry Pi and people could actually use it to buy me beer.

About me
I’m Ilia, a computer science student and engineer from Iran who moved to the Netherlands. My work spans systems programming, offensive security, and web products people actually use.
I really enjoy good music and art, and I play the Setar. Growing up with Eastern philosophy and Persian poetry also shaped my love of philosophy.
What draws me to a project is usually how cool it sounds in my head, so whatever you see here probably sounded cool af to me at some point :)
