I’m Alexandre Marcel Lucas. This is where I share my tech notes and thoughts with the world.
As a cybersecurity professional, I’ve learned that teaching others is one of the best ways to improve our own understanding. If even one person finds something useful here, it’s worth it. :-)
About the .zip Domain
Is this site safe?
Yes, absolutely. Despite the unconventional .zip domain extension:
- ✅ Full HTTPS encryption (see lock icon in browser)
- ✅ Hosted on Cloudflare Workers (enterprise-grade infrastructure)
- ✅ No downloads - this is a standard blog, not a file archive
- ✅ Open source - View source code on GitHub
- ✅ Established - Publishing tech content since 2025
Why .zip?
The .zip top-level domain is a new web extension launched by Google in 2023. While it shares a name with compressed file formats, it’s a legitimate domain extension like .com or .dev.
I chose .zip because:
- Memorable - Unique and tech-relevant
- Available - My preferred .com/.dev were taken
- Statement - Represents compressed, efficient technical content
