Danish S
@danishs
I conduct penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and Python security automation for web, network, and IoT environments.
What I'm looking for
I've conducted penetration testing and security assessments for small-business websites, identifying exposed services, outdated packages, insecure request handling, and misconfigurations. I deliver prioritized remediation recommendations and build Python scripts for port scanning and log parsing to speed up security assessments.
During internships with Jay Precision Products India, Vartulz Technologies, Sai Infotech, and Flexi Safe Technologies, I supported enterprise risk assessments, infrastructure security reviews, endpoint controls, SOC-style monitoring, network traffic inspection, vulnerability reporting, and internal security tooling.
I've also built an IoT penetration testing framework and an automated network and port scanning application. I bring hands-on experience with Kali Linux, Burp Suite, OWASP ZAP, Nmap, Wireshark, Metasploit, and practical security automation.
