This GitHub hosts small, focused public artifacts from side research and infrastructure work: datasets, measurement tooling, and reference configurations. Professional work lives in private repositories or production systems.
I have long-running IRC and network-ops roots. Much of what's here exists because it's useful to that world: practical measurement, abuse visibility, and operational tooling. Data from these projects feeds into DroneBL and EFnetRBL.
- Network & security research datasets - curated data for defensive analysis and tooling validation
- Infrastructure tooling & configs - reference configurations for monitoring and operations
- Notes & experiments - narrow explorations useful to others
If you run IRC/DNSBL/proxy-monitor pipelines, these are the canonical entry points:
daily-proxy-ips- daily open proxy exits for local/offline workflowssemi-static-proxy-ips- stability-filtered proxy exits for blocklist seedinghopm-conf- HOPM/BOPM scanner configurations
Defensive security research, network measurement, fraud/abuse prevention, and infrastructure experimentation.
Not for circumventing safeguards or enabling malicious activity. Datasets are intentionally constrained to reduce misuse risk. If something here creates unintended harm, please contact me.

Intentionally small. Quality > volume.
