What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in cybersecurity where I can grow, tackle challenges, and contribute to innovative security solutions.

As a dedicated Cybersecurity Engineering student at the Polytechnic School of Sousse, I am passionate about ethical hacking and security. My academic journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in network security, cryptography, and penetration testing. I thrive on challenges and actively participate in Capture The Flag (CTF) events, where I apply my skills in real-world scenarios.

During my professional experience as a Gaming Support Agent at 5CA, I resolved technical issues related to account security and contributed to fraud prevention efforts. My summer internship at DRAXLMAIER Tunisia allowed me to assist in securing network infrastructure and monitoring system logs for potential threats. I have also developed secure applications, such as a mobile e-commerce app and a game clone, showcasing my programming skills in Java, Python, and Android Studio.
