Building practical
security systems
I'm Myles — a cyber security practitioner and tool builder based in Sydney, Australia.
I build practical security utilities, automation workflows, and repeatable templates for cloud, web, and operational security. My bias is toward tools that reduce real risk, make recovery easier, and turn manual security work into systems that can be reused.
I'm most interested in secure-by-default infrastructure, DNS and web hardening, incident readiness, evidence packs, and security automation that helps small teams operate with more confidence. I've spoken at WordCamp Brisbane, run cloud security tooling across AWS, Azure, and GCP, and been in the trenches with Cloudflare, Splunk, and Velociraptor.
When I'm not building security tools, you'll find me surfing, snowboarding, mountain biking, or on the back of a motorbike. Dad. Tech geek. Coffee addict. In that order.
