I'm an Ethical Hacker at InLighnX Global Pvt Ltd, where I bring a calm, methodical approach to identifying vulnerabilities and strengthening digital defenses. I believe in combining logical precision with a genuine commitment to honest, principled security practices — because true cybersecurity is as much about integrity as it is about technical rigor. With a disciplined and organized mindset, I take pride in leaving no detail unexamined, ensuring every assessment I deliver is thorough, transparent, and built on a foundation of trust.
Experience
Ethical Hacker
InLighnX Global Pvt Ltd (InLighn Tech) · Aug 2025 – Nov 2025
- During my ethical hacking internship, I worked on web application security using a controlled lab environment.
- I used Kali Linux and OWASP Broken Web Applications (bWAPP) to understand how authentication systems work and where they fail.
- I analyzed login functionality by intercepting HTTP requests and responses using Burp Suite.
- I performed brute-force attacks using Burp Suite Intruder and Hydra to demonstrate how weak passwords and missing security controls can be exploited.
- Through this work, I identified issues such as lack of rate limiting, no account lockout, and inconsistent login responses.
- I documented my findings, included screenshots and attack steps, and suggested basic security improvements based on OWASP guidelines.
- This internship helped me build a strong foundation in web security testing, practical attack techniques, and clear technical documentation.
