Building secure, scalable digital experiences.

I'm a cybersecurity master's student who designs, builds and self-hosts real products - from a multiplayer casino to a live online store. Nearly everything below runs on my own Oracle Cloud server.

Selected work

Things I've built, end to end

Design, code, deploy and keep it running. A mix of products for friends, a client store, and tools I use every day.

A real-time, multi-tenant casino I run for different friend groups - poker, blackjack and roulette tables, a live settlement service that tracks who owes whom, and an admin panel to manage it all.

Infrastructure

Running the platform

The plumbing behind the sites - delivery, email, monitoring and containers for the whole platform.

Cloudflare & Email

Migrated the whole domain's DNS from Spaceship to Cloudflare - 44 A records plus a CNAME - with DNSSEC and Full (strict) TLS, and put the sites behind Cloudflare's proxy for CDN caching and DDoS protection. Also set up [email protected] through Cloudflare Email Routing, with replies sent via Gmail SMTP.

About

A builder at heart

I'm Akassh - a Master's student in Cybersecurity at HDBW Munich with a background in computer science. I learn best by building well past what a course asks for: standing up servers, wiring up apps and keeping them running.

My interests sit across network security, digital forensics and secure systems, and nearly everything I make lives on a single Oracle Cloud ARM64 box I set up and maintain myself. Currently open to Werkstudent roles.

Let's build something.
