What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow in cybersecurity, focusing on web application security and bug bounty programs, while contributing to a collaborative and innovative team.

I am a dedicated and passionate cybersecurity enthusiast currently pursuing a Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science Engineering at Jamia Hamdard University, with an expected graduation in May 2026. My academic journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in programming languages such as Python, C/C++, and Java, alongside specialized knowledge in web application penetration testing and security tools. I have consistently maintained a CGPA of 7.0/10, reflecting my commitment to excellence in my studies.

My practical experience includes an internship at Cyber Secured India, where I honed my skills in OWASP Top 10, Nmap, and Wireshark, and engaged in web application pentesting. Additionally, as a Security Researcher with YesWeHack, I have successfully identified critical bugs in various high-profile applications, including those of the Government of California and Redbull. My active participation in bug bounty programs has not only sharpened my technical skills but also allowed me to contribute to the security of multiple organizations.
