D RUDRA PRATAP
@drudrapratap
Cybersecurity engineer specializing in AI security, VAPT, SIEM/SOC, and regulatory compliance for SaaS platforms.
What I'm looking for
I’m a cybersecurity professional with hands-on experience across offensive security, defensive infrastructure, AI security, and regulatory compliance. Currently, I work as a Cyber Security Engineer at edysor.ai, where I own the end-to-end security posture of a B2C SaaS edtech platform—from SIEM deployment and network segmentation to AI penetration testing and multi-framework compliance.
On the offensive side, I conduct VAPT across web applications, APIs, networks, and cloud environments. I also perform AI pentesting for prompt injection, model extraction, adversarial inputs, and LLM insecure output handling—assessed against OWASP Top 10 for LLMs and the MITRE ATLAS framework.
On the defensive side, I’ve built and managed security monitoring using Wazuh SIEM and configured WireGuard VPN tunnels for secure connectivity between AWS cloud VMs and on-premise monitoring. I also implement intrusion detection, file integrity monitoring, active response (including auto-blocking brute force and web attacks), and network segmentation with VLAN isolation via OPNsense.
I focus heavily on compliance & risk alignment, conducting gap analysis and control mapping for ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, DPDPA, FERPA, and the EU AI Act. I’m also a cybersecurity trainer and content creator—delivering CEH and CCNA Security certification prep and creating practical YouTube content for the security community.
