Portrait of Muhammad Muslim

01 — About

I fix things until I understand why they broke.

Cybersecurity graduate from Vilnius University, currently supporting POS, network, and payment-device systems for 12+ merchant cases a shift. Before that, I built and repaired computers for 40 clients on my own in Dubai. The projects in this loop are the same instinct applied on purpose: take something broken or unclear, and make it provable.

Based

Vilnius, Lithuania.

Degree

Cybersecurity, Vilnius University, 2022–2026.

Now

POS & network support, night shift.

Speaks

English, Urdu.

02 — Projects / Public Python tool

Three recordings.
One incident.

Separate terminal recordings obscured the order of one technical session. I built a Python workflow that aligns them by timestamp and replays the whole thing as one synchronized event, so I can review a coherent session instead of jumping between three files.

Problem

Recordings with no shared clock.

Built

Timestamp-aligned replay in Python.

Result

One session, not three files.

03 — Projects / Bachelor's project

Attacker activity became material I could study.

For my bachelor's project I built a Linux honeypot using Python and Bash, then reviewed what it actually captured. Repeated behaviour in the logs became something I could study rather than a theory I only wrote about, and connect directly to threat-intelligence and incident-response work.

Build

Linux, Python, and Bash.

Capture

Logged activity, reviewed after.

Study

Behaviour tied to real IR use cases.

04 — Projects / Independent practice

I save the failed path, not just the answer.

I keep a running notebook of my legal practice: the exact command or path I tried, where it broke, and the smallest lesson I could retest. I keep the failed assumption instead of rewriting the session as if I knew the answer from the beginning.

Attempt

The exact path I chose.

Blocker

Where it actually broke.

Lesson

The smallest retestable change.

Private practice workspace, notes only.

05 — Career route / Pakistan to Dubai to Vilnius

PC repair first. Support now. Security next.

Originally from Pakistan, I moved to Dubai in 2009 and started by building and repairing computers for 40 clients on my own. Vilnius was the next stop: 2.5 years supporting Shift4 and Revel Systems point-of-sale, network, and payment-device deployments across 12+ merchant cases a shift. The next stop is security operations.

01 / Origin

Pakistan to Dubai, 2009.

02 / Vilnius

Shift4 & Revel Systems support.

03 / Next

Security operations.

06 — Contact

Open to work.

Security-operations and technical roles are the target now. The code behind every project in this loop is on GitHub.
