CERTIFICATIONS & COURSES

Google Cybersecurity Certificate

Prepared by Google experts to equip learners with hands-on experience using Python, Linux, SQL, SIEM tools (e.g. Chronicle, Splunk), and intrusion detection systems like Suricata. Includes training in threat analysis, incident response, and real-world security operations.

Pro Bug Hunting – Self Made Ninja Academy, India

Through this course, I gained hands-on experience in identifying, reporting, and fixing security vulnerabilities in web applications. I learned how to responsibly disclose security flaws through bug bounty platforms and earn rewards for valid reports. The course also introduced me to binary exploitation techniques, where I explored how low level vulnerabilities can be discovered and exploited in compiled programs. This training enhanced my skills in vulnerability assessment, secure coding, real-world exploitation, and ethical hacking. By the end of the course, I became confident in discovering and mitigating both web based and binary level security threats.

CYBER TECH MASTERY – Self Made Ninja Academy, India

By completing the Cyber Tech Mastery bundle, which includes LAHTP(Learn the Art of Hacking Through Programming) Legacy, LAHTP(Learn the Art of Hacking Through Programming) Advanced, and Advanced Web Hacking courses, I significantly advanced my cybersecurity skills. This comprehensive program deepened my understanding of ethical hacking and programming, taught me how to develop security tools, and enhanced my expertise in web application security. Through a mix of theory and hands-on labs, I learned to identify, exploit, and mitigate a wide range of security vulnerabilities. This experience has empowered me to become a valuable contributor in the cybersecurity field, equipped with practical skills and a mastery mindset.

Reverse Engineering and Ethical Hacking (Udemy)

I have completed the Reverse Engineering and Ethical Hacking course on Udemy, where I gained practical skills in analyzing software and uncovering vulnerabilities. This course taught me how to dissect binaries, understand malware behavior, and apply ethical hacking techniques to identify security flaws. Additionally, I learned ethical hacking fundamentals through training by Z-Security, which covered various penetration testing methodologies, real world attack simulations, and responsible vulnerability disclosure. Together, these experiences have strengthened my ability to approach cybersecurity challenges with a hands-on and ethical mindset.

PROJECTS

Linux-Based DDoS Simulation Tool (Educational Purpose)
2018
Technologies: Bash, Python, Linux Networking
  • Designed and implemented a custom tool to simulate Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks for educational and testing purposes in controlled environments.
  • Utilized raw sockets to craft and send TCP, UDP, and ICMP packets, enabling flexible attack vector simulation.
  • Integrated multithreading in Python to simulate large-scale attacks and maximize throughput.
  • Built custom Bash scripts to automate tool deployment, configuration, and testing on multiple Linux systems.
Custom Packet Analyzer
2018
Technologies: Python (Scapy), Wireshark APIs
  • Developed a real-time packet sniffer using Python and Scapy to capture and analyze network traffic efficiently.
  • Integrated basic anomaly detection to identify unusual patterns and potential security threats during packet inspection.
  • Utilized Wireshark APIs for enhanced protocol parsing and visualization of captured network data.
Linear Equation Solver (Matrix-Based)
2018
Technologies: C++ (OOP)
  • Developed a C++ command-line tool using Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) to solve systems of linear equations.
  • Implemented Gaussian Elimination and back-substitution for efficient and accurate matrix-based solutions.
  • Designed a modular structure to handle dynamic input sizes, error handling, and edge cases in mathematical computation.
Custom Packet Analyzer
2018
Technologies: Python (Scapy), Wireshark APIs
  • Developed a real-time packet sniffer using Python and Scapy to capture and analyze network traffic efficiently.
  • Integrated basic anomaly detection to identify unusual patterns and potential security threats during packet inspection.
  • Utilized Wireshark APIs for enhanced protocol parsing and visualization of captured network data.
XSS Attack Lab (Educational Purpose)
