Technical Stack

Core Skills

C

Performance-first tooling and concurrency work.

Started with C , Mastered syntax , Built NmapAnalyzer Integrating MySQL for result storage. Started data structures using C as my foundational programming language.

Java

Currently focused on foundational oop's.

Applied Java for structured logic, class design, and DSA practice that improves implementation discipline.

Python

Automation and scripting support for security workflows.

Used for rapid scripting, scanning, task automation, and proof-of-concept helpers during recon and validation.

SQL

Relational analysis and database-driven reporting.

Wrote optimized queries for extraction, filtering, and result-based reporting in security datasets.

JavaScript

ReconX backend automation and workflow acceleration.

Currently diving deep into JavaScript to strengthen my cybersecurity skillset, focusing on real-world attack surface understanding and automation.

Offensive Usage

Tools

Burp Suite

Primary toolkit for web security testing workflows.

Used for interception, repeater testing, and parameter-level validation in web vulnerability assessments.

Metasploit

Actively learning Metasploit for exploitation and validation.

Actively mastering Metasploit for exploit simulation and post-exploitation in lab environments.

Nmap

Network mapping and vulnerability-focused enumeration.

Used Nmap effectively to understand network fundamentals and reconnaissance techniques

Gobuster

Fast discovery of hidden paths and resources.

Used Gobuster for directory and endpoint enumeration to uncover hidden attack surfaces.

FFUF

Rapid fuzzing to accelerate reconnaissance coverage.

Used FFUF for high-speed endpoint and parameter fuzzing to uncover hidden attack surfaces.

Operating Systems

Comfortable usage across Kali Linux, Ubuntu, and Windows.

Kali Linux

Preferred setup for penetration testing workflows.

Daily environment for offensive tooling, automation scripts, and reproducible security labs.

Ubuntu

Reliable platform for scripts and lab environments.

Comfortable for development workflows, CLI tooling, and lightweight virtual lab setups.

Windows

Used for daily workflows and cross-platform testing.

Used for documentation, testing compatibility, and mixed environment execution.

Security Journey Highlights

Security Automation Builder

I focus on building tooling that makes repeated security tasks faster and more reliable.

From NmapAnalyzer in C to ReconX in Node.js, my approach is to convert manual, error-prone reconnaissance into measurable, scriptable workflows.

Hands-on Offensive Learner

Practical labs and real systems are my main way to grow in offensive security.

I am ranked in the top 7% on TryHackMe and use challenge-based environments to sharpen enumeration, vulnerability validation, and attack path thinking.

Consistent Problem Solver

Algorithmic and database problem solving supports my security mindset.

LeetCode practice in C, SQL, and Java helps me reason about edge cases, optimize logic, and write cleaner automation under constraints.
