Introduction!

Welcome to my blog! I want my blog to be all about learning and progressing on my path to becoming a real computer expert. I have some prior experience of computers: I know the basics of their internal processes, how to exploit some badly written code and some writing of the code myself. I feel like my skills do not really help anyone now because I am still learning. Henceforth, I want to help develop secure servers because it is sad to see breaches, which would be easily avoidable, and it might cause the suffering of multiple people.

 


The reason I chose to study information processing is simply because I want to deepen my understanding of computers. In the future I would wish that my career path would end up in information security. I have heard that information security is a lucrative career because you can make lots of money. On top of that, I fancy the people in the business, and they amaze me every time with their solutions.

 

My most interesting project was a couple of years ago. I worked with a cryptographical problem, which I will not go to detail now because it is out of scope for this post. I worked with many other people but not specifically close. I did some things and asked for help if I really got stuck. After finishing the project, I learned that I really need to struggle to get the results I want. I need to delve into the depths of algorithms, computers and learn how to work with other people efficiently.

 

The primary purpose of my blog is to teach myself and others. If I continue doing this blog after the ECIP course, I want to turn this into a memo for me. Hopefully, you will enjoy my journey on becoming a omniscient of computers!

Final stretch: The trade fair

Hello again, this will be my last blog post in the ECIP course. The trade fair was stressful at first, but it turned out to be quite fun in ...
