About Me

Passionate about cybersecurity and continuous learning

I'm a cybersecurity enthusiast with a passion for protecting digital assets and solving complex security challenges. Currently working as an AI Agent Assistant at MindRift, where I optimize AI systems while maintaining my focus on cybersecurity.

My journey in cybersecurity began during my B.Tech studies, where I discovered my love for penetration testing and vulnerability assessment. I've had the opportunity to work with industry-standard tools like Nmap, Metasploit, and Burp Suite, identifying and reporting vulnerabilities across various environments.

When I'm not securing systems or optimizing AI models, you'll find me tackling CTF challenges on TryHackMe (where I'm in the top 9%), writing technical articles about my findings, or staying updated with the latest security trends. I believe in continuous learning and sharing knowledge with the cybersecurity community.
