Security Engineer

Aimen Mamache

Cloud security, detection engineering, and eBPF. I build tools that monitor and protect at the kernel level.

About

Building security
tools at the
kernel level

Software engineering student at USTHB. I build detection engines, cloud security scanners, and runtime monitoring tools.

My work bridges kernel-level programming with cloud-native architectures — from eBPF probes to CSPM scanners.

Security tools I've built

Beacon Guard

eBPF-based runtime security monitor that hooks kernel syscalls, builds per-process behavioral baselines, and kills anomalous processes in real time.

GoeBPFCLinux

K8s Runtime Guard

Container-aware detection engine. Detects container escapes, cross-namespace attacks, and suspicious behavior via 9 kernel probes with K8s audit correlation.

GoKuberneteseBPF

CloudSweep

AWS CSPM scanner. 50+ misconfiguration checks across S3, EC2, IAM, KMS, CloudTrail, RDS, Lambda, VPC, and GuardDuty.

PythonAWS SDKBoto3

PassShield

Password security platform with k-anonymity breach detection via HIBP, entropy analysis, and cryptographic generation.
