@zigzag49
Cyber Security Intern focused on network security and threat analysis; ranked in the top 1% globally on TryHackMe.
What I'm looking for
At Center for Cyber Security Studies & Research, I conducted Nmap scans to identify open ports, running services, and potential vulnerabilities. I also prepared vulnerability assessment reports with prioritized findings and remediation recommendations.
I deployed and monitored Wazuh SIEM in a small lab network for threat detection, log correlation, and alert triage. My internship also included digital-forensics exercises in evidence identification, preservation, and basic artifact analysis.
In personal projects, I built a Python-based intrusion detection system that monitors network traffic and uses YARA rules to generate real-time alerts. I also designed a segmented LAN using VLANs, inter-VLAN routing, and subnetting.
Hands-on labs have taken me to the top 1% global rank on TryHackMe and into the top 8 in Nepal on the BTLO national leaderboard. I’m seeking practical industry experience where I can support the protection of cloud systems, networks, and IT infrastructure.
