// about

A system builder, researcher, and evolving cybersecurity professional.

I am a London-based MSc Cybersecurity & Digital Forensics student originally from Bangladesh, focused on building practical cybersecurity systems and AI security infrastructure. GT is my personal technical identity, and GTRepo is where I document my research projects, experiments, and evolving understanding of modern cybersecurity systems.

My interests center around Zero Trust AI systems, explainable security decisions, digital forensics, threat monitoring, SOC-style platforms, and secure AI gateways. Moving from Bangladesh to London has made the work feel personal: I am building systems while learning, testing ideas through code, and staying curious about future technologies.

My Philosophy

I am interested in how AI systems, infrastructure, human behavior, and security intersect. I believe future AI systems should be security-first by design: observable, explainable, monitored, and controlled through adaptive trust systems rather than blind access.

My work focuses on building practical systems that combine Zero Trust principles, behavioral analysis, explainable security decisions, forensic visibility, and secure AI infrastructure.

Security-first AI

AI systems should be designed with verification, policy, visibility, and control from the beginning.

Observable decisions

Security tools become more useful when their decisions can be inspected, explained, and challenged.

Adaptive trust

Access should respond to behavior, context, risk, and evidence instead of assuming anything is safe.

Forensic visibility

Good systems leave useful traces for investigation, learning, and future improvement.

What I'm Building

Cybersecurity systems, forensic tools, and SOC infrastructure — all real builds.

Zero Trust AI Gateway

MSc Dissertation — Adaptive Zero Trust Architecture for Open-Source AI

Active

AI Security / Zero Trust

An adaptive Zero Trust security architecture for secure onboarding and usage of open-source AI models. Evaluates model posture before deployment, inspects every prompt for adversarial patterns, applies ALLOW / CHALLENGE / BLOCK policy decisions with explainable risk records, filters outputs, and continuously reassesses trust as sessions evolve — feeding a SOC-style monitoring dashboard.

Problem solved

Traditional perimeter-based security cannot address open-source AI risks: data leakage, adversarial manipulation, and misuse of models without a clear control point between user intent, policy enforcement, and audit visibility.

Architecture feel

Five-layer pipeline: model onboarding → Zero Trust enforcement → risk reduction (secure mode) → adaptive reassessment → explainability & SOC audit trail. Backend in FastAPI + PostgreSQL; frontend in Next.js.

Technologies

AI Firewall / API Interceptor

Experimental

Experimental

AI Gateway Security

An extension of the Zero Trust AI Gateway that lets external applications route model requests through a security layer before reaching their AI provider. Supports client API key authentication, prompt inspection, policy enforcement, output inspection, structured logging, and drop-in API-style integration.

Problem solved

External apps need a simple way to send AI traffic through security checks without redesigning their full application stack.

Architecture feel

Middleware-style API interceptor with client keys, request inspection, policy enforcement, provider routing, and structured event logging.

MemScope Memory Forensics

Prototype / Research Build

Prototype

Digital Forensics

A digital forensics platform focused on ingesting and analyzing memory artefacts, correlating suspicious activity, and visualizing attack-chain investigations.

Problem solved

Memory evidence can be difficult to inspect quickly when process, network, DLL, command, and timeline signals are spread across raw artefacts.

SOC Monitoring Dashboard

Active UI Module

Active

Security Operations

A SOC-style dashboard for visualising alerts, user anomalies, attack timelines, threat heatmaps, model posture events, and Zero Trust decision logs. Built as a standalone module that integrates with the AI Gateway backend.

Problem solved

Security decisions are hard to trust if they disappear into logs without a readable operational view.

Concept

AI Assistant / Automation

A personal assistant concept focused on local-first automation, voice control, secure tool access, memory persistence, and privacy-aware AI orchestration. Designed to run privately without sending data to third-party services.

Problem solved

Personal assistants need useful automation without ignoring privacy, tool boundaries, local control, and security review.

// platform purpose

Useful Tools Over Noisy Wrappers

Most online tools are bloated, low-quality, or overloaded with ads. GTRepo is being built as a modern AI, cybersecurity, and utility ecosystem focused on practical outputs: clear interfaces, trust-aware workflows, and tools that actually solve real problems.

// future ecosystem

Roadmap Direction

AI-assisted security tools

Practical AI pipelines that help identify suspicious behavior, risky input, and trust signals faster.

Developer APIs

API-first utility modules so other apps can plug into GTRepo checks and AI workflows.

Advanced productivity systems

Connected writing, summarisation, and task helpers built for real student and builder workflows.

Secure business automation

Automation tools with guardrails, audit visibility, and clear operational controls.

Browser extensions

Lightweight trust-check tools in-browser for scam, phishing, and authenticity workflows.

Intelligent utility systems

Cross-tool intelligence for verification, efficiency, and long-term platform learning loops.

// msc dissertation

My MSc dissertation explores a practical AI gateway architecture for secure model access. The system applies Zero Trust thinking to AI interactions by inspecting prompts, evaluating contextual risk, enforcing security decisions, inspecting outputs, and producing explainable logs that can support SOC-style monitoring.

Research Summary

A student research system for testing how AI requests can be evaluated, explained, monitored, and controlled before model access is granted.

Screenshots / Placeholders

Dashboard and architecture visuals are kept as prototype previews until the dissertation build is ready to publish more fully.

Future Work

Improve behavioral scoring, expand threat intelligence signals, strengthen output inspection, and evaluate the gateway against realistic AI security scenarios.

Research Notes

Personal GT Lab notes on ideas, lessons, and technical reflections as GTRepo evolves.

Research notes2 min reflection

What is Zero Trust for AI?

Traditional Zero Trust focuses on users, devices, and infrastructure, but AI systems introduce new attack surfaces such as prompt injection, unsafe outputs, model misuse, and unrestricted access to powerful models. My current research explores how Zero Trust principles can be adapted into AI gateways that continuously inspect prompts, evaluate trust, monitor behavior, and apply explainable security decisions before and after model execution.

Prompt Injection Thoughts

One of the most interesting AI security problems is prompt injection. Unlike traditional exploits, prompt injection manipulates instructions and model behavior rather than software memory directly. I am currently exploring how layered inspection, contextual risk analysis, policy enforcement, and behavioral monitoring can reduce these risks in AI systems.

Docker Networking Lessons

While building and deploying projects, I realized many deployment issues are not caused by application code itself, but by networking and environment configuration. Understanding container networking, localhost isolation, environment variables, DNS resolution, and service communication became an important part of my learning journey.

Building Security Dashboards

I enjoy designing security dashboards because they combine visibility, usability, and technical monitoring into a single interface. My recent work focuses on creating SOC-style dashboards that make threat activity, alerts, system posture, and security decisions easier to observe and understand.

Explainable AI Security

Security systems become more useful when their decisions are understandable. I am particularly interested in explainable security decisions where systems can show why a request was blocked, challenged, or allowed instead of behaving like black boxes.

Learning Threat Monitoring

My current learning path includes understanding how monitoring systems detect suspicious behavior over time. I am exploring how logs, alerts, behavioral patterns, and anomaly tracking can work together to improve visibility in modern security systems.
