Cybersecurity Researcher • AI/ML Engineer • Full-Stack Developer
B.Tech Student at National Institute of Technology, Rourkela
My work is built on a core philosophy: to truly defend a system, you must understand how to break it. As a multifaceted cybersecurity professional, I immerse myself in the attacker's mindset through penetration testing, malware engineering, and security research. I then utilize this deep threat intelligence to architect and engineer proactive, AI/ML-powered security solutions on scalable full-stack platforms.

Projects
A selection of my best work in cybersecurity and development.
AI-Powered Penetration Testing Workflow
Built a comprehensive automated pentesting framework with multi-phase AI workflow: discovery & reconnaissance, intelligent test planning, dynamic payload generation, and automated execution targeting all web vulnerabilities. Features adaptive exploitation with LLM agents, goal-oriented testing, and intelligent vulnerability assessment across complete attack surfaces.
Vulnerability Detection via Source Code Analysis
Developed an AI-powered static analysis tool that automatically detects security vulnerabilities in source code using advanced machine learning models, pattern recognition techniques, and deep semantic analysis. Features intelligent code parsing, vulnerability classification, risk assessment scoring, and automated reporting with detailed remediation recommendations for secure development practices.
Real-Time Vishing Detection System
Designed a sophisticated fine-tuned LLM-based transcript analyzer for advanced scam call detection with real-time emotion detection, voice pattern analysis, and comprehensive background noise classification. Seamlessly integrated into a mobile application platform for instant alerts, detailed reporting, and automated response using cutting-edge machine learning algorithms for intelligent pattern recognition and threat classification.
Intelligent Threat Detection & Response Platform
Developed an intelligent SOC platform utilizing ensemble methods (Random Forest, XGBoost) and deep neural networks (LSTM, CNN) for real-time threat detection. Features behavioral anomaly analysis using isolation forests, adaptive network scanning with TCP/UDP fingerprinting, automated incident response workflows, and MITRE ATT&CK framework integration.
Advanced Security Monitoring Dashboard
Built a comprehensive security monitoring dashboard with real-time threat visualization, incident tracking, and automated alert systems. Features interactive data analytics, SIEM platform integration using REST APIs and WebSocket connections for live data streaming and threat intelligence feeds.

About Me
I started out writing exploits and hacking into stuff just for fun, just trying to see how far I could push systems and what I could make them do. At some point, I realized those same skills could actually be used to help people by making tech safer.
Right now, I'm doing my B.Tech at NIT Rourkela and running Rapture Twelve, where I work on red teaming, malware analysis, and building security tools powered by AI/ML. What started off as late-night experiments slowly turned into creating frameworks that can automate threat detection, simulate attacks, and strengthen defenses.
I still get the same kick out of breaking and building things, but these days I try to put that energy into solving real problems. I use AI and ML to make security smarter and more scalable, contribute to open-source projects, and share what I learn along the way. Basically: I break things so other people don't have to.
Get In Touch
I'm always open to discussing new projects, creative ideas, or opportunities to be part of an ambitious vision. Feel free to reach out.
