Final-year B.E. CSE student building SOC, detection, and secure-system projects with hands-on experience in Splunk SIEM, VAPT, threat modelling, and security-focused development.
Building a safer digital future.
Engineering Resilient Systems.
I'm a final-year B.E. Computer Science student at C. Byregowda Institute of Technology, Kolar (CGPA 8.1), focused on cybersecurity, SOC operations, secure systems, and applied security research.
My work spans VAPT, SIEM-based monitoring with Splunk, threat modelling, IDS/IPS concepts, cryptography, and security-focused backend development — delivered through internships, open-source projects, and peer-reviewed research publications.
Currently targeting SOC analyst, blue-team, and cybersecurity internship roles where I can contribute to detection, analysis, and resilient system design.
Core Focus Areas
My Professional Journey
A timeline of my roles, research, projects, and contributions in the field of cybersecurity and technology.
Technical Lead
Defined the technical roadmap and enforced secure SDLC across active club projects spanning cybersecurity, AI, and web systems. Ran code reviews for security vulnerabilities and applied threat modelling, maintaining zero critical vulnerabilities in submitted deliverables. Mentored 15+ junior developers on secure coding and Security QA while coordinating a 50+ member technical team.
Tech Lead — i-Sphere'26 Hackathon
Directed an 8-event, 250+ participant national hackathon end-to-end — operations, judging, and live infrastructure. Hardened the registration and submission stack against abuse, sustaining 99.9% availability through peak load.
Microsoft Elevate × AICTE Intern
Completed a 6-module program covering Microsoft Azure, cloud administration, AI/ML, and Microsoft Copilot. Designed scalable Azure infrastructure architectures and built intelligent automation workflows using Azure AI and Power BI.
Cybersecurity Intern
Conducted VAPT across 10+ simulated enterprise environments using Nmap, Burp Suite, and Metasploit; identified and documented 15+ vulnerabilities following OWASP methodology. Performed SIEM log analysis in Splunk — triaged alerts, correlated endpoint events, escalated confirmed incidents, and documented incident timelines. Applied firewall configuration, threat modelling, and IDS/IPS tuning across simulated enterprise networks; delivered structured assessment reports that standardized remediation workflows.
