๐Ÿ‘‹ Welcome to my GitHub profile!

Hi! I'm passionate about Ethical Hacking, Cybersecurity, and Large Language Models (LLM). I am currently deepening my knowledge in cybersecurity and, at the same time, exploring the world of language models to understand how they work under the hood.

I have earned the eJPT (eLearnSecurity Junior Penetration Tester) certification and completed all TryHackMe certified paths on Red Teaming, Offensive Pentesting, and Web Pentesting. I am excited to share my experiences and skills with the community.

In this space I publish guides, resources, and practical projects: from writeups for Capture The Flag (CTF) to hands-on labs on LLMs and automatic voice dubbing tools.


๐Ÿš€ My Projects

๐Ÿšฉ CTF โ€“ Guide to Solving Capture The Flag

Step-by-step guides to solve Capture The Flag, a great way to test your skills and learn new ethical hacking techniques.

  • ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Detailed CTF guides
  • ๐Ÿ“š Resources and study materials
  • ๐Ÿ’ก Tips and tricks to improve your cybersecurity skills

๐Ÿ”— Go to the CTF repo


๐ŸŒ NetPriority โ€“ Windows QoS & DSCP Manager

A Windows desktop application for managing application network priorities through Windows QoS policies and DSCP values.

Key features:

  • ๐Ÿ“‹ Lists running applications on the system
  • ๐Ÿ” Allows searching and selecting an application
  • ๐Ÿ“ Allows manually selecting an .exe file
  • โš™๏ธ Creates QoS rules associated with an application and a DSCP value
  • ๐Ÿ“œ Lists all QoS policies present on the system
  • ๐Ÿ—‘๏ธ Removes selected QoS policies (with confirmation for those not managed by NetPriority)
  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Shows administrator privilege status

๐Ÿ”— Go to the NetPriority repo


๐ŸŽ™๏ธ Dubber โ€“ Voice Dubbing EN โ†’ IT

An offline automatic voice dubbing project that translates and dubs content from English to Italian in real time, starting from system audio. Completely local, without LLMs.

Key features:

  • ๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Automatic transcription of the original audio
  • ๐ŸŒ EN โ†’ IT translation
  • ๐Ÿ”Š Italian speech synthesis
  • ๐ŸŽฌ Output ready for dubbing
  • ๐Ÿ’ป Works entirely locally

๐Ÿ”— Go to the Dubber repo


๐Ÿงช LLM Lab โ€“ Learn by Playing with Language Models

A practical lab for a first approach to LLMs. Not just theory: you download a small model (Qwen2.5-0.5B) and, step by step, modify it to see how its behavior changes.

What you'll learn:

  • ๐Ÿ”ค Tokens: why words are split into chunks
  • โœ๏ธ Generation: how the model chooses one word at a time
  • ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Temperature: the control of creativity
  • ๐ŸŽฏ Top-K and Top-P: filters for selecting words
  • ๐Ÿงญ Steering: how to "guide" the model by modifying its internal activations
  • ๐ŸŽฎ Interactive generation: you choose the tokens step by step!

๐Ÿ”— Go to the LLM Lab repo


๐Ÿ‘พ Aliens โ€“ 2D Arcade Space Shooter

A 2D arcade space shooter built with Python and Pygame: battle waves of aliens, defeat the boss, and climb the high score leaderboard.

Key features:

  • ๐ŸŽฎ Flexible controls: keyboard, mouse (shooting only), or hybrid mode
  • ๐Ÿ‘ฝ Three alien types with different behaviors
  • ๐Ÿ‘‘ Final boss with health bar, laser attacks, and fire bursts
  • โšก Power-ups: Shield, Rapid Fire, Multi-Shot
  • ๐Ÿ“ˆ Progressive difficulty after each boss
  • ๐Ÿ† High score leaderboard (top 5 scores)
  • ๐Ÿ”Š Dynamic sound effects generated with numpy
