Your Responsibility: You are responsible for complying with your local laws and any contracts that apply to you. If you're unsure whether something is appropriate, do not proceed.

About Me & Core Values

I'm Giuseppe Giona, a friendly systems engineer with a mathematics background. I enjoy building clean, reliable tools that remove friction. People who work with me describe me as positive, diligent, and calm under pressure.

I value:

Clarity over cleverness
Security by default
Measurable performance
Respectful communication
Small, well-documented steps

Security Tooling Context

Any references to scanning, hardening, or verification exist to help owners assess their own systems and to promote good security hygiene.

Permission Required: Do not run tools on networks or devices without explicit written permission. When in doubt, get consent first.

Information on this Site is for general information only. It is not legal advice and should not be relied upon as such.

Important: Publishing research or educational material here is not an admission of wrongdoing or intent; it reflects curiosity, craftsmanship, and a desire to help others learn safely.
