who

// summary

kryptokat is the research handle of Charlotte, an independent security researcher working at the intersection of adversarial machine learning, steganography, and offensive security. The focus is purple-team: understanding attacks well enough to help defenders build systems that survive them.

Most work here sits in one of three places โ€” multimodal AI attack surfaces, classical steganography ported forward into the LLM era, and the practical question of how you actually assess AI-enabled applications in the wild.

research interests

// what i'm working on

why kryptokat

// on the name

Krypto because the work lives in hidden-information territory โ€” steganography, covert channels, the things you're not supposed to see.

Kat because cats are the patron animal of anyone who stays up too late on a problem they can't put down. Also because the internet was built on cats and it feels rude to argue.
