Final-year engineering student focused on penetration testing, ethical hacking, and vulnerability assessment. Building hands-on skills through security labs, CTF challenges, and real-world reconnaissance and security testing practice.
I am a final year Cybersecurity Engineering student passionate about ethical hacking, penetration testing, and security research. I enjoy learning how systems, networks, and web applications work from a security perspective and continuously improve my practical cybersecurity skills through labs, projects, and hands-on practice.
My interests include vulnerability assessment, web application security testing, Linux environments, networking, and cybersecurity tools. I am currently focused on strengthening my knowledge in penetration testing methodologies and real-world security concepts while building practical experience through projects and continuous learning.
I am actively seeking opportunities to grow as a cybersecurity professional and contribute to security-focused environments.
Network discovery and port scanning. Used for host enumeration, service version detection, and OS fingerprinting during reconnaissance.
Deep packet inspection and network traffic analysis. Used to capture and dissect protocols for network troubleshooting and security analysis.
Intercepting proxy for web application security testing. Used to analyse HTTP traffic, identify injection points, and test OWASP vulnerabilities.
Automated SQL injection detection and exploitation tool. Used to test database vulnerabilities and understand injection attack vectors in controlled lab environments.
Penetration testing framework for discovering, exploiting, and validating vulnerabilities. Used in lab environments to practice offensive security techniques responsibly.
Actively preparing for the Certified Ethical Hacker certification, covering systematic hacking methodology, tools, and countermeasures across key security domains.
In ProgressCompleting hands-on cybersecurity learning paths including Pre-Security, SOC Level 1, and offensive security rooms through guided lab environments.
Active LearnerGained practical exposure to real-world cybersecurity operations during an internship, including security monitoring, vulnerability assessment, and reporting.
CompletedSecurity testing tool that evaluates password robustness using entropy analysis, complexity rules, and common pattern detection — a foundational skill in vulnerability assessment.
Custom TCP port scanner built for reconnaissance and network mapping. Identifies open services on target systems — a core step in penetration testing methodology.
ARP-based host discovery tool for local network reconnaissance. Maps live hosts and resolves MAC addresses — simulating the initial information-gathering phase of a pentest.
A unified CLI toolkit combining port scanning, hash utilities, and basic OSINT functions — designed to support structured security testing workflows in lab environments.
A public knowledge base covering penetration testing concepts, web application security (OWASP), tool usage, and CTF writeups — built as a living study reference.
Started by mastering the Linux command line — file systems, permissions, networking commands, process management, and scripting with bash. Linux became my primary working environment.
Studied networking fundamentals including TCP/IP, OSI model, DNS, HTTP/HTTPS, and common protocols. Understanding how data flows is foundational for security analysis.
Learned to use core security tools: Nmap for scanning, Wireshark for packet analysis, Metasploit for exploitation basics, and Burp Suite for web application testing in lab environments.
Explored OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities including SQL injection, XSS, and CSRF. Practiced on TryHackMe rooms and intentionally vulnerable apps like DVWA.
Channeled knowledge into personal security projects — port scanners, network tools, and a security notes platform. Applying theory through code and real-world simulation.
Currently preparing for CEH certification while continuing active learning through TryHackMe, CTF challenges, and security research. Growing toward a professional security role.
