What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster growth in cybersecurity, particularly in cloud and IoT security, within a collaborative and innovative environment.

I am a dedicated cybersecurity professional currently pursuing a Master’s in Cybersecurity, building on my solid foundation from a Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity and Forensics. My hands-on experience includes internships focused on Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT), where I successfully conducted assessments on various platforms, identifying critical vulnerabilities and providing actionable recommendations.

My passion for cybersecurity extends to key areas such as cloud security, IoT security, and Governance, Risk Management, and Compliance (GRC). I thrive on leveraging my technical skills and problem-solving abilities to tackle complex cybersecurity challenges. As a GRC intern at Hover Over Security, I contribute to innovative solutions for risk management and regulatory compliance, further enhancing my expertise in the field.
