At National Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (NTRA) & EG-CERT, I reverse engineered a Remote Access Trojan and mapped its Indicators of Compromise to the MITRE ATT&CK framework to enhance threat detection rules.

I also investigated a compromised system through digital forensics and threat hunting, isolating initial attack vectors and analyzing malicious artifacts. My web application penetration testing uncovered vulnerabilities, and I delivered a remediation report.

For my Petya Malware Analysis project, I conducted static and dynamic analysis in an isolated lab, using Ghidra, Wireshark, and Process Monitor to identify Indicators of Compromise and map the infection lifecycle.

I built an LLM Prompt Firewall to detect and intercept malicious prompt injections. My graduation project, Smart Hybrid Attendance System, integrated UHF RFID tags and QR codes with a digital twin mapping engine.
