About Me

I'm a third-year B.Tech student specialising in Cyber Security at Sister Nivedita University, with hands-on experience in vulnerability assessment and penetration testing (VAPT), SOC operations and SIEM-based log analysis using Kali Linux, Nmap, Wireshark, Burp Suite and Metasploit.

I've completed job simulation programs with Deloitte (Cyber Security) and Mastercard (Phishing Simulation & Analysis), building practical skill in alert triage, incident response and threat detection — and I've built and deployed four independent security tools covering encryption, file integrity, network reconnaissance and phishing detection.

Experience

Virtual job simulations, in chronological order.

Cyber Security Job Simulation

Aug 2026

Deloitte — via Forage

Investigated 5+ simulated security incidents by applying threat identification, log analysis and alert triage on real-world SOC scenarios, strengthening incident-response skills.

Cybersecurity Job Simulation

Aug 2026

Mastercard — via Forage

Designed and executed a phishing email simulation across a simulated user base; analysed response data to identify vulnerability patterns and delivered 3+ actionable recommendations for security awareness training.

Projects

Five independent tools, each live in production.

Failed Login Detection Dashboard

SOC DASHBOARD

A SOC-style dashboard (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Chart.js) that analyses login activity logs, auto-flags IPs with 5+ failed login attempts as suspicious, and displays GeoIP-based country flags, a login trend chart, and search/filter tools for rapid triage. Deployed live on Netlify.

Password Manager

CREDENTIAL SECURITY

A password manager web application with AES-based encryption to securely store and manage user credentials, deployed to production on Netlify.

File Checker

FILE INTEGRITY

A file integrity verification tool using SHA-256 hashing to detect unauthorised file modifications and tampering, deployed as a live web application.

Phishing URL Detector

URL SAFETY

A client-side phishing URL detection tool (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) that evaluates links against key heuristic indicators — HTTPS usage, suspicious keywords, IP-based domains, and @ symbol obfuscation — returning a real-time risk score and safe/caution/danger verdict.

Windows Event Log Analyzer

SOC DASHBOARD

A browser-based SOC simulation dashboard that parses Windows Event Logs (Event IDs 4624, 4625, 4688, 4720, 4740), classifies severity and status, surfaces suspicious activity and critical alerts, and visualises events by type and severity distribution. Runs 100% client-side with CSV export of suspicious events — no backend, no data leaves the page.

Port Scanner

NETWORK RECON

A multi-threaded network port scanner covering all 65,535 TCP ports, applying service enumeration to accelerate vulnerability assessment and penetration-testing workflows.

05 — Track Record

Achievements & Activities

Performed hands-on penetration testing, vulnerability analysis and digital forensics using 7+ Kali Linux tools — Nmap, Wireshark, Burp Suite, Metasploit, Hydra, John the Ripper and Autopsy.

Built and deployed four independent cybersecurity web projects covering credential security, file integrity, network reconnaissance and phishing URL detection — each live in production.
