Myself

Hi, I’m Nagi. The name comes from the Japanese-made kanji 凪, meaning a calm or windless sea.

I’m a software engineer with an enduring habit of taking binaries apart to see how they work. My interests include reverse engineering, operating-system and virtual-machine security, CTFs, and tinkering with OpenWrt. This blog is where I keep writeups, experiments, configuration notes, and anything else worth remembering.

I studied software engineering at Zhejiang University and competed with Azure Assassin Alliance, primarily working on reverse-engineering challenges in various CTF competitions. I later studied information security at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh and competed with PPP.
