Siguza

I'm an iOS hacker / security researcher from Switzerland.
I spend my time reverse engineering Apple's code, tearing apart security mitigations, writing exploits for vulnerabilities, or building tools that help me with that. Sometimes I speak about it at conferences, sometimes I do lengthy blog posts with all the technical details, sometimes my work becomes part of a jailbreak, and sometimes it never sees the light of day.

Bukkit plugins

A long time ago, when Bukkit was still alive and I still had time to play games, I wrote some Minecraft server plugins. Maybe one day I'll find the time to rewrite them for a new mod API.

TWLan

An even longer time ago, when browser games were hot, I was on the development team of the (fan-made) LAN-version of the browser game Tribalwars.
