📍 Vancouver, Canada
☕ Sysadmin-turned-Solutioneer | 💻 Cybersecurity | ⚙️ Automation | 🧠 PowerShell | ☁️ Cloud
I'm Adil, a sysadmin-turned-solutioneer who believes that curiosity, automation, and caffeine are the holy trinity of productivity.
I currently work as a Senior Solutioneer at Palo Alto Networks, helping organizations modernize their cloud security posture while keeping things practical and fun.
When I’m not building labs or solving cloud problems, I’m probably creating something weird and wonderful—like games, tools, or interactive demos that make learning security a little less boring.
- 🔐 Cybersecurity — CNAPP, CSPM, CIEM, DSPM, and everything Cortex Cloud
- ⚙️ Automation & DevOps — PowerShell, Bash, Terraform, GitHub Actions
- ☁️ Cloud Architecture — AWS, Azure, and hybrid security patterns
- 🎨 Creative Projects — Blending tech with design, storytelling, and humor
- ☕ CNAPPuccino — A hands-on cloud security lab "brewed for the cloud"
- 🎯 Cyberdle — A Wordle-style game for cybersecurity acronyms
- 🧩 Qwizzle — A modular quiz engine for interactive learning and trivia
- 🔍 QRCheck.ca — A Go-powered QR code scanner that helps protect you from phishing & scam redirects
I’m active in the PowerShell, Cloud Security, and PANW Solutioneer communities.
You’ll often find me hanging out in PowerShell Slack and Discord channels, mentoring peers, or sharing automation tips in internal enablement sessions and Fuel User Groups.
If you’re into building, breaking, or brewing (coffee or code), let’s connect.
When I’m not scripting or solution’ing, I’m:
- 🎨 Designing logos, stickers, and icons
- 🌊 Taking long walks on the beach
- 🍝 Enjoying candlelit dinners (preferably after a good demo)
