I'm a cybersecurity researcher focused on VAPT, secure engineering, and network infrastructure. While I work across web application security and ethical hacking, I'm mostly drawn to networking — configuring, managing, and securing network devices to keep communication reliable and safe.

I cover the full lifecycle: recon → threat modeling → exploitation → post-exploitation → reporting & fixes. Expect reproducible PoCs, risk-driven impact, and pragmatic remediation plans that reflect engineering realities. My networking passion includes configuring routers, switches, VLANs, and security rules to build infrastructure that holds up under pressure.
