Sohom Chandra
@sohomchandra
Cybersecurity analyst focused on malware analysis, threat detection, and practical defensive/offensive security.
What I'm looking for
I am a cybersecurity analyst and GRC enthusiast with hands-on experience in malware analysis, pentesting, and incident response gained through internships, open-source projects, and competitive CTF participation.
At Cyberstanc I analyzed 10+ malware samples weekly, identified IOCs, unpacked obfuscated binaries, and supported regulatory mapping to ISO 27001 and SEBI requirements.
I contribute to community security efforts and have built tools such as a Malware Analysis Toolkit, an automated reconnaissance pipeline (Reaver), and app reverse-engineering documentation (Kraken), reducing recon time and improving investigative outcomes.
I hold strong programming and tooling skills (Python, C, Rust, Ghidra, Burp Suite, Wireshark, Nmap), relevant certifications in progress, and a consistent record in CTFs and hackathons that demonstrates applied problem-solving under pressure.
