Cybersecurity intern at White Hat Coders who assessed vulnerabilities and analyzed network traffic with Wireshark and Burp Suite.

What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an entry-level cybersecurity role.

At White Hat Coders, I executed vulnerability assessments and analyzed network traffic using Wireshark and Burp Suite to identify security risks.

I also applied reconnaissance, threat analysis, and penetration testing fundamentals to evaluate and harden system defenses.

For a password strength and risk evaluator project, I developed a checker that assesses password length, character diversity, and weak-password patterns, with real-time feedback.

I also built a Python subdomain enumeration tool that uses DNS query libraries to discover active subdomains and identify potential attack vectors. I'm pursuing a B.Tech in Cyber Security at Kurukshetra University and seeking an entry-level cybersecurity role.
