Hi, I’m Kevin
I build infrastructure, security tooling, and full-stack applications.
What I Build
Infrastructure & Cloud
Infrastructure as code for AWS and Azure. Serverless backends, CDN deployments, multi-cloud provisioning. I automate the parts that shouldn’t require a human.
Security
Cloud security monitoring and alerting. Custom vulnerability scanners. Authentication systems. Penetration testing. WAF configuration. I build the detection, not just the policy.
Full-Stack Applications
Web applications from database to frontend. Task queues, caching layers, object storage. CLI tools. I work across the stack in Python, PHP, JavaScript, and Bash.
AI Integration
Production systems built on LLM APIs. Local model inference and fine-tuning. I integrate AI where it solves real problems, not where it sounds impressive.
Projects
GlyphMemory - Cross-session memory system for AI assistants. TOTP auth, audit logging, serverless backend with optimized queries.
GlyphIRC - Full-featured IRC client. Multi-server connections, TLS, SASL auth, proxy support, encrypted chat logs, spam filtering, AI integration via MCP.
DNS Security Scanner - 41 modular security checks covering DNSSEC, zone transfers, email auth, certificate validation, subdomain takeover detection, and more. Risk scoring and professional reporting.
cli.py - Personal script library manager. SQLite-backed catalog of hundreds of scripts with search across names, descriptions, and tags. Auto-detected execution, complexity reporting.
glyph.sh - This site. Static site on a CDN, infrastructure-as-code managed, automated deployment, WAF protection. Runs under $20/month.
Background
I run Kessler Automation LLC - cybersecurity and technology services for small and mid-size businesses. Previous experience as IT Manager leading infrastructure, security, and cloud operations across multiple locations.
Why This Site Exists
I kept rewriting the same infrastructure code at different jobs. This is the canonical version - tested, deployed, and free to use.
Beyond the Terminal
Outside of work: fishing, security research, and building tools that solve problems. Tinkerer at heart who learns by building, breaking, and rebuilding.
Transparency
This site was built with assistance from Claude AI. Experience and technical expertise are mine; site development and content structure were AI-assisted.
