My name's Yousef.

Taking it back to high school, I became interested in cryptography when I first watched "The Imitation Game" (great movie by the way!). Cryptography was such an important part of the world at the time, probably even more important now, and it left me infatuated with the concept. Fast forward to now, and I've essentially made it a big part of my life with most of my leisure time being spent on cryptography activities, like CTFs and decoding hidden files in hex among other things. When not working on Cybersecurity, I spend a lot of time training badminton for my national team back home in Kuwait. I also love video games and travelling, with some of the weirdest countries I've been to being Azerbaijan (with Kuwait Badminton!) and Cambodia!
