What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities in cybersecurity, where I can apply my skills and contribute to enhancing security measures.

I am a dedicated and aspiring cybersecurity analyst with a strong foundation in computer science engineering from Anna University. My academic journey has equipped me with a GPA of 7.9, and I have actively sought opportunities to apply my knowledge in real-world scenarios. Through various job simulations and virtual experiences, I have gained hands-on experience in cybersecurity incident response, fraud detection, and prevention.

My recent projects, including a JWT compromise on Roadmap.sh and a comprehensive penetration test, have honed my skills in vulnerability assessment and exploitation. I am proficient in utilizing tools such as Splunk, Nmap, and Burp Suite, and I have developed a keen understanding of security best practices. My certifications, including the Practical Network Penetration Tester (PNPT) and Google Cybersecurity Certificate, further validate my commitment to the field.
