Security Lab

Real security implementations applied across my projects — authentication, access control, monitoring, and logging

Implemented in Production

Authentication & Access Control

Security measures implemented across the platform to ensure only verified users can access protected resources, with granular role-based permissions enforced at every layer.

Google OAuth authentication
Supabase authentication system
Middleware Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
Protected routes and permission checks

Monitoring & Logging

Real-time visibility into application health, user behaviour, and error tracking — ensuring issues are caught and diagnosed before they affect users.

Sentry – real-time error monitoring
Activity logging API (/api/auth/log-activity)

Input Validation & Data Protection

Application-level protections implemented to prevent common web vulnerabilities such as injection attacks and improper data handling.

Server-side input validation
Sanitization of user inputs
Prepared statements to prevent SQL injection
Secure data handling and validation layers

API Security

Security controls implemented to protect API endpoints from unauthorized access and abuse.

JWT token verification
Protected API routes
Request validation middleware
Rate limiting concepts

Security Testing

Hands-on testing and vulnerability analysis performed during development to identify and mitigate potential attack vectors.

SQL injection testing
Basic penetration testing workflows
Network analysis with Kali Linux
Aircrack-ng wireless security testing

Security Best Practices

Always validate and sanitize user input
Use HTTPS for all communications
Implement proper authentication and authorization
Use environment variables for sensitive credentials
Apply the principle of least privilege
Keep dependencies and libraries updated
Implement structured logging and monitoring
Follow OWASP secure coding principles
