About the author
Abir Rahi
Certifications: CompTIA A+
I work across IT systems and operations, bringing experience from the education sector and a growing focus on cybersecurity. I’m passionate about keeping technology reliable, secure, and out of the way of the people who depend on it. As I continue growing in the field, I’m especially interested in engineering and designing systems that better protect our data and the technology we use every day.
Why this exists
Security is easier to understand when you can see it.
I created Lens on Security to connect my ordinary photographs with cybersecurity concepts. A building, a road, a lock, or a set of pillars can reveal something about identity, networks, resilience, monitoring, and the decisions that keep systems safe.
This site is both a learning journal and a place to practice communicating security clearly. Each article starts with something visible and uses it as a path into the less visible systems that shape our digital lives.
