About

Hey, I’m Oskar - security engineer, threat researcher, AI enthusiast and recovering perfectionist.

I spend most of my time helping product engineering teams design and ship software securely. I’ve been doing this kind of work across research, engineering, and leadership for a couple of decades, and I still get reasonably excited when thoughtful design actually raises the bar for attackers.

This blog is where I write about security, AI systems, and technical rabbit holes. Posts here are opinionated, not meant to be taken too seriously, and yup — I use LLMs to save time and help me crunch words, charts, and code. I’ve put in the time keeping them honest — and gotten pretty good at spotting hallucinations. The ideas here are all mine, originating from a brain that is occasionally overflowing.

why “brain overflow”?

  1. Tribute to Stack Overflow.
    A nod to an iconic resource that helped so many — now being retired by the very thing it helped build.

  2. It’s literally a dump site for ideas.
    If something overflows my brain’s storage quota, it gets offloaded here before garbage collection kicks in.

  3. A metaphor for the AI era.
    If you’re an engineer like me, you know the feeling — new tools, new attacks, new patterns, new hype cycles, all at once. Our brains are running hot trying to keep up.

If a post here teaches you a thing or two about security or helps you do your job better, great. Because hacking is fun.
