Cybersecurity student building a Kali Linux live environment for security learning and authorized testing.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I customized Kawach OS, a Kali Linux-based live environment, using Cubic and packaged it as a bootable ISO for cybersecurity learning and authorized testing.
I integrated selected security tools and custom scripts, then tested the ISO in a virtual machine. I also worked on Linux configuration, ISO creation, and project documentation.
In an academic team project, I contributed to a Python web application vulnerability checker focused on common OWASP-related threats. The work covered vulnerability-checking concepts, security visibility, and reducing destructive false-positive alerts.
I'm studying Cyber Security & Forensics at Parul University after completing a B.Sc. in Computer Science. My practical project experience includes Linux, Python, virtual-machine testing, and web-application security.
