Cybersecurity & Network Engineering

Cybersecurity & Network Engineering Technology student at Purdue University, operating a real homelab, a 3-node OCI K3s cluster, and a self-hosted documentation platform. I care about architecture, network segmentation, and how systems actually run in production. Open to IT, Cybersecurity, and Network Engineering internships.

Experience

Cybersecurity Intern

Nov 2025 – Present

Sinapsis AI · London, UK (Remote)

Preparing ISO/IEC 27001 audit documentation and security policy across access control, network segmentation, remote access, and secure administration.

Selected Projects

OCI K3s Cluster — 3-node K3s (1 control-plane + 2 workers) on Oracle Cloud Always-Free ARM; Ingress-NGINX + cert-manager TLS, tightened VCN security lists, external DNS to the load balancer. Hosts every public service I run.

BookStack — docs.hyuntae.net — self-hosted documentation platform running on the same K3s cluster it documents, with deployment notes and backups.

Secure Minecraft Service — a small public service designed like a production deployment, using DMZ placement and management-plane isolation.

UniFi Homelab Network — segmented, wireless-first network: VLAN design, east-west firewall isolation, and CGNAT-aware architecture.
