Cybersecurity
In 2024, I made the decision to expand my skill set into cybersecurity—driven by a long-standing curiosity about digital security and a desire to understand the systems behind the tools I use every day. I completed the Cybersecurity Bootcamp with the University of Sydney, graduating with a 99.34% grade, and earned my CompTIA Security+ certification in early 2025.
I'm particularly interested in penetration testing and cryptography, and I’m currently working towards the OSCP certification to further develop my skills in offensive security and ethical hacking. My goal is to build practical experience in real-world environments while continuing to grow my technical expertise and contribute meaningfully to the cybersecurity community.

“I had the pleasure to have Eugene in the cybersecurity bootcamp in 2024. He stood out as a highly dedicated and curious student, consistently completing every exercise with diligence and enthusiasm. What truly impressed me was his strong critical thinking skills—he often questioned lessons in insightful ways, demonstrating a deep understanding of the material and a drive to explore beyond the surface.
Additionally, he excelled in all Capture the Flag (CTF) challenges, ranking among the top three in the bootcamp. I have no doubt he is a talent who will excel in his cybersecurity career and make a significant impact in the field.”
