I’m a final-year B.Tech Cybersecurity Engineering student deeply passionate about hands-on cybersecurity, SOC, DFIR, and IoT security.
I learn by doing—building labs, analyzing real devices, solving security challenges, and continuously improving my skills.
I aim to become a highly skilled cybersecurity professional with strong practical expertise in defensive operations, incident response, and IoT security.

• SOC & DFIR: Practicing real-world SOC tasks using LetsDefend and custom labs.
• IoT Security: Analyzing devices like TP-Link Tapo C200 and CP Plus CCTV cameras for firmware vulnerabilities, network enumeration, and exploitation.
• Network Security: Hands-on labs with TCP/IP, OSI layers, protocol analysis, and vulnerability testing.
• Cybersecurity Tools & Labs: Kali Linux, Nmap, Wireshark.

• Hands-on approach: Labs, device analysis, and real-world scenarios over theory.
• Structured experimentation: Each project builds my skills in SOC, DFIR, and IoT security.
• Continuous reflection: Review results, identify gaps, and improve techniques.

• IoT Security: Firmware analysis and vulnerability assessment for CCTV cameras.
• SOC Labs: DFIR investigations and SOC monitoring exercises using LetsDefend and virtual labs.
• Networking & Pentesting Labs: Packet captures, protocol analysis, port scanning, and service enumeration.
• Internship: Completed a 2-month cybersecurity internship at IIIT Allahabad, focusing on IoT device security, firmware analysis, and vulnerability research.
