Hello, ForkLore
What this blog is for, what I'll be writing about, and how posts here are put together.
Welcome to ForkLore. This is where I write up what I find while poking at security, AI systems, blockchains and the parts of the internet most people never look at.
What to expect
- Cybersecurity: write-ups from labs, CTFs and coursework, with the reasoning behind each step and not just the commands.
- AI vulnerabilities: prompt injection, vibe-coded apps shipped without review, and what goes wrong when models get tools.
- Blockchain cryptography: how the maths actually works, and where the hype outruns it.
- Digital forensics: following the evidence and documenting what it shows.
How posts look
Inline code looks like nmap -sV 10.10.10.5, and longer snippets get their own block:
import hashlib
def sha256(data: str) -> str:
"""Return the hex SHA-256 digest of a string."""
return hashlib.sha256(data.encode()).hexdigest()
print(sha256("forklore"))Follow the evidence, question the assumptions, document the discoveries.
Everything I test here is on systems I own or am authorised to test. If a post saves you some time, there’s a coffee link in the footer.
