PRINCE KUMAR

I’m a cyber security postgraduate with hands-on experience in VAPT, Security Monitoring, and Purple Team Operations. At C-DAC, I built an automated adversary emulation and defense orchestration framework aligned to MITRE ATT&CK, using Nmap, Metasploit, Hydra, Docker, Wazuh, and Suricata.

During my Cyber Security Research Intern tenure, I automated reconnaissance, brute-force testing, and exploit execution in isolated lab environments, then monitored Suricata and Wazuh telemetry for real-time detection and alert correlation. I also streamlined attack–defense experimentation workflows through orchestration and automated telemetry collection, and translated findings into structured, reproducible testing setups.

My M.Tech thesis (A.R.C.H.) focused on building a purple-team orchestration framework for automated attack simulation, telemetry collection, threat detection, and active defense validation. I achieved an 81.7% MTTR reduction and 3× reconnaissance speedup across controlled sessions, and I complement this work with applied projects like ML-based phishing domain detection and iterative model evaluation.
