About

I'm a BCA graduate and cybersecurity student with a strong foundation in computer fundamentals and programming languages like Python. My primary focus lies in penetration testing, ethical hacking, and open-source intelligence (OSINT), driven by a passion for understanding how systems work under the hood. I started playing CTFs to see how real vulnerabilities actually work, and I kept going because every challenge teaches something a textbook doesn't.

My journey into cybersecurity started during my BCA graduation when I discovered Linux and Ubuntu. I grew completely fascinated by the terminal, Bash scripting, and exploring commands. That initial curiosity naturally pulled me into cybersecurity. I started out like many do, exploring GitHub tools and running them in the terminal as a script kiddie. However, that curiosity drove me to explore much more of the field, leading me to take professional cybersecurity training filled with hands-on practical experience. Today, I combine a strong foundation in computer science and programming with continuous, day-by-day learning. and I love tackling challenges to see how real vulnerabilities work way beyond what any textbook can teach you.

Writing a solution down is the fastest way to find out whether I really understood it. This site is my notebook made public: what I tried, what failed, what finally worked, and what I'd check first next time.

Each write-up follows the same shape (overview, summary, enumeration, exploitation, lessons learned), so you can skim for the part you need. I include unsolved challenges too, because dead ends are useful to read.

Everything here targets CTF infrastructure or deliberately vulnerable labs I have permission to test. Please don't point any of it at systems you don't own.
