About Me

I am a Diploma CSE student building a serious career in cybersecurity. After completing 10th grade, I enrolled in Science stream for 11th, then made a deliberate decision to drop out of 12th and directly join a Diploma in CSE at Government Polytechnic Khagaria — because practical technical skills and real security tools matter far more than a theoretical degree in this field. I contribute consistently on GitHub, build Python security tools, and aim to become a professional Penetration Tester.

🌐 Networking

Building a strong daily foundation in TCP/IP, ARP, ports, protocols, subnetting, and LAN scanning.

🐧 Linux Internals

Daily Kali Linux usage — command-line mastery, file permissions, process management, and system networking.

🐍 Python Dev

Socket programming, multithreading, argparse CLIs, JSON/HTML report generation — building security automation tools.

🔍 Pen Testing

Learning ethical hacking step-by-step — recon, scanning, enumeration, and responsible vulnerability assessment.

My Journey

2024 — 10TH PASSOUT
Secondary School — 10th Grade ✅
St. Joseph's Public School (CBSE Board), Samastipur — Successfully completed 10th grade. This is where my serious interest in computers and technology first began.
2024 – 2025
11th Class — S.R.J.S.A School
Enrolled in Science stream for 11th grade. Simultaneously self-studied Linux, Python, and cybersecurity fundamentals — and realized that practical skills matter far more than a conventional academic path in this field.
2025 — PIVOT DECISION
12th Dropout — Deliberate Career Choice
Instead of completing 12th grade, I made a calculated decision to enroll directly in a Diploma in CSE. A practical technical diploma is far more relevant for a cybersecurity career than a theoretical intermediate degree.
AUG 2025 — PRESENT 🎓
Diploma in Computer Science & Engineering
Government Polytechnic Khagaria, Bihar — Currently in Semester 1. Developing security tools alongside core CSE coursework and maintaining consistent contributions on GitHub.
TARGET →
CEH → OSCP → Penetration Test Engineer
Short-term: Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) certification. Long-term: Clear the OSCP exam and land a full-time red team or penetration testing role at a reputed security firm.

Projects

⚡ Vulcan — Offensive Security Framework

PythonLATEST
// 2025–2026  |  ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT  |  MIT

A modular offensive security framework combining multi-threaded scanning, ARP host discovery, OS fingerprinting, CVE lookup, and automated reporting — all in a single powerful CLI tool.

  • Multi-threaded TCP/UDP port scanning engine
  • ARP-based live host discovery on LAN
  • OS fingerprinting via TTL stack analysis
  • CVE lookup for discovered open services
  • Automated JSON + HTML report generation
  • Modular plugin architecture — easily extensible

🔍 NetDiscover Pro v3

Python
// 2024–2025  |  5 COMMITS  |  MIT

Advanced WiFi network scanner — discover all connected devices, scan open ports, detect camera/IoT devices, guess operating systems, and export a full JSON scan report.

  • ARP discovery — detect all live LAN devices
  • Full TCP port scan (port 1–1024)
  • RTSP-based camera/IoT device detection
  • OS guessing via TTL-based heuristics
  • Risk score calculation per device
  • Multithreaded engine — fast scanning

🛡️ SecAudit Lite

Python
// 2024–2025  |  7 COMMITS  |  MIT

Lightweight Linux security hardening checker — SSH config analysis, firewall status, root login check, and weak permissions scan. Supports Kali Linux, Ubuntu, and Termux.

  • SSH config analysis (root login, password auth)
  • UFW firewall status check
  • Clean Rich library terminal output
  • Kali, Ubuntu, Termux support
  • Planned: open ports, sudo audit, JSON export

📷 Camera-Hack

HTML
// 2024  |  EDUCATIONAL / AWARENESS

A browser-based camera access social engineering demo built for phishing awareness. Shows how browser permissions can be manipulated — purely for security education and awareness training.

  • Browser API permission abuse demo
  • Social engineering awareness tool
  • Security education focused only

🌐 My Portfolio

HTML/CSS
// 2025–2026  |  LIVE SITE

This cybersecurity portfolio — matrix canvas animation, glitch text effect, blurred background, dynamic color themes, and a fully responsive mobile design.

  • Matrix canvas + dark overlay
  • Subtle glitch animation on title
  • 5 switchable color themes
  • Font toggle & text size controls
