I test networks, Active Directory, and web applications to uncover security weaknesses.
What I'm looking for
I'm an eJPTv2-certified Junior Penetration Tester and B.Tech Computer Science student, ranked in the top 3% of TryHackMe users and active in CTF competitions.
I've built a multi-host Windows Active Directory lab to practice domain enumeration, Kerberoasting, AS-REP Roasting, and privilege escalation with BloodHound. I also configured pfSense firewall rules, network segmentation, and Suricata IDS/IPS for live threat detection.
I'm developing practical web exploitation skills through PortSwigger Academy, using manual and automated testing methods to assess and bypass modern web security controls.
