ABOUT ME

Building Systems.
Breaking Assumptions.
Securing the Future.

I work at the intersection of technology, security, and leadership. My journey started from understanding how systems fail, sometimes by building the failures myself, so I could later design them to stand strong.

As CTO at Lumoshive, I lead teams to build resilient systems, secure platforms, and pragmatic solutions. My background spans offensive and defensive security (Purple Team), software engineering, project leadership, and the creation of Securebox (WAF).

I believe real security is not about paranoia, it's about clarity, discipline, and quiet control over complexity.

PRODUCT · WEB APPLICATION FIREWALL

Securebox WAF

Securebox WAF is an enterprise-grade Web Application Firewall I design and build from the ground up: a single self-hosted binary that sits in front of your sites as a reverse proxy, soaks up Layer-7 DDoS, and blocks the OWASP Top 10 before a single malicious request reaches your application. It bundles global threat intelligence, JA4H behavioral fingerprinting, automatic Let's Encrypt certificates, and a real-time monitoring dashboard, so a small team can run production-grade protection without stitching a dozen tools together. Everything stays on your own infrastructure, and every HTML response can be encrypted on the fly, so bots and scrapers never see your markup.

Securebox WAF live-monitor command center: a real-time world map of traffic, an attack-type breakdown (Threat Intelligence, JA4H, SQLi, XSS, RCE, LFI), a live event feed and a queries-per-second chart.
$ sudo bash -c "$(curl -fsSLk https://waf.securebox.id/download/securebox-waf-setup.sh)"

One command brings the WAF and its database up in under a minute.

Global threat intelligence

Drops 615M+ known-bad IPs at the edge, before they touch your app or burn server resources.

JA4H immune system

Fingerprints every request, counts strikes across time windows, and auto-bans repeat offenders.

OWASP Core Rule Set

Blocks SQL injection, XSS, and path traversal out of the box, with per-rule exceptions for false positives.

Layer-7 anti-DDoS

Rate-limits per IP and per site, then jails aggressive traffic with a block or JavaScript challenge.

HTML/JS encryption

Bots and scrapers see encrypted garbage; real browsers decrypt every response transparently.

Auto-SSL & routing

Let's Encrypt certificates renew themselves across reverse-proxy, static, PHP, and redirect modes.

SEE IT IN ACTION

Live monitoring dashboard

Real-time world map, attack feed, and queries-per-second, built for a 24/7 command center.

Deploy in under a minute

From zero to a protected site with a single install command.

Put it in front of your own servers.

Securebox runs on your infrastructure, so your traffic never leaves your machines.
