About Me

Hello! My name is John Johnson and I created this blog to host some of my CTF resources. Most of this info is collected here so that I can actually remember how to CTF, but I hope it’s useful to other people as well.

Background

I graduated from the United States Air Force Academy in 2018 where I earned bachelors degrees in Computer Science and Computer and Network Security. I earned my Masters in Information Security at Carnegie Mellon University through the Information Networking Institute. There, I worked as the problem dev lead for Pico 2021. Now, I spend most of my time playing CTFs and researching topics like web application testing, Google’s V8, and Linux kernel internals.

Please reach out to me with any questions on twitter @madStacks3
