Cyber Security Analyst at Redynox who analyzed DNS and TLS traffic and practiced web application security testing.

India
Message

At Redynox, I deployed OWASP WebGoat in a Dockerized Kali Linux environment and completed a controlled SQL Injection exercise. I traced the related HTTP POST request using OWASP ZAP.

I also captured and analyzed DNS and TLS 1.3 traffic with Wireshark, examining handshake and encrypted application data records. I configured and verified a Windows Defender Firewall inbound rule.

At Codec, I practiced identifying web vulnerabilities with Burp Suite and PortSwigger Web Security Academy labs. I also reproduced XSS and SQL Injection techniques in a controlled lab environment.

For my Hybrid Machine Learning-Based Intrusion Detection System project, I built a system combining Random Forest, DBSCAN, and Autoencoder models. I implemented live packet analysis and anomaly detection, then validated detection of live port-scan attacks using Kali Linux.
