About

Founder of snapWONDERS and builder of Vaultify — a digital media forensics platform running across clearnet, Tor, and I2P. What I work on: metadata excavation, JPEG encoder fingerprinting (identifying camera model and encoding software from compression structure alone — no EXIF needed), steganography detection and hiding, GPS triangulation, and manipulation detection. The core idea: standard metadata stripping tools remove the labels but leave the fingerprint. The quantisation tables baked into JPEG compression by camera firmware survive every strip. Vaultify finds them. Senior full-stack developer and tech lead by day. Building snapWONDERS on the side — forensics, privacy, and deep dives into file format internals. snapwonders.com · vaultify.snapwonders.com #digitalforensics #OSINT #steganography #infosec #privacy #metadata
