Application Security Engineer | Cybersecurity Professional | CTF Player | Security Researcher
Welcome to my piece of the internet! I'm an Application Security Engineer and Cybersecurity Professional focused on securing applications, cloud infrastructure, and threat intelligence automation. I love breaking things to understand how they work—and then engineering robust defenses to secure them.
- 🛡️ Application Security & Vulnerability Management: Experienced in vulnerability ingestion, vulnerability lifecycle tracking, and risk remediation using Qualys, Prisma Cloud by Palo Alto Networks, and Jira.
- 📡 Threat Intelligence & Security Automation: Experienced in engineering Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) platforms leveraging OpenCTI, custom Python security scripts, and threat feed correlation (MITRE ATT&CK, CISA, CERT-In).
- 🚩 CTF & Offensive Security: Active CTF competitor with team fSociety, specializing in binary exploitation, reverse engineering, cryptography, and web application security.
- ⚙️ IoT & Hardware Security: Hands-on experience with Raspberry Pi & microcontroller security, including multi-factor authentication physical access control systems.
- ⚡ Fun Fact: My adrenaline is split evenly between clutching a 1v5 in-game and frantically submitting a captured flag seconds before a CTF timer runs out.
