Shane Mkhwanazi

I’m a Systems Development student with a strong interest in Cybersecurity, IT Risk, Information Systems, and Technology Assurance. I combine software development with cybersecurity fundamentals to turn problems into practical solutions.

Through academic projects and industry simulations, I’ve built phishing awareness and password security tools, and analyzed engagement data to identify security risks. I enjoy using data and structured thinking to assess what’s happening and why.

I’m skilled in programming and cybersecurity concepts, including risk assessment and information security fundamentals, and I use OSINT and networking knowledge to strengthen my understanding of real-world environments. I’m comfortable collaborating, communicating clearly, and solving problems with a team mindset.

I’m actively seeking to launch a career in IT Assurance, Cybersecurity, Technology Risk, or Information Systems. My goal is to contribute to safer systems while continuing to grow through hands-on learning and measurable outcomes.
