About Me
Passionate about securing the digital world
I'm an undergraduate student at Softwarica College of IT & E-Commerce, specializing in cybersecurity with a focus on ethical hacking, penetration testing, and network defense.
My journey in cybersecurity started with curiosity about how systems work and how they can be protected. I believe in learning by doingactively participating in CTF competitions, practicing on platforms like HackTheBox and TryHackMe, and working on real-world security projects.
When I'm not debugging code or analyzing network traffic, you'll find me writing technical articles, contributing to open-source security tools, or exploring the latest vulnerabilities and attack vectors.
