What is ShinySec?
This is the professional portfolio of Shiny Sentry, an information assurance and security consultant.
ShinySec[dot]org is a professional home for my tools and educational resources, kept distinct from my personal projects. My work focuses on providing trustless, -nym respecting, and libre solutions for the general public, with particular usefulness for marginalized communities and security educators.
