Hello! I'm a cybersecurity graduate from Curtin University with an extensive technology and information security background. I am passionate about sharing my knowledge, always eager to learn from the security community and thrive on tackling new challenges.
My experience spans a comprehensive range of web application penetration tests for various clients, using methodologies based on NIST SP 800-115 Technical Guide to Information Security Testing and Assessment, OWASP TestingGuide (v4), and customized testing frameworks. Throughout my journey, I've successfully discovered and reported vulnerabilities on over 200 websites, including major corporations and government sites such as TripAdvisor and the US Department of Defense. My expertise was recently recognized when I won the 100 Days Challenge 2023, hosted by the Dubai Cyber Innovation Park, where I developed an innovative solution for detecting WebShell vulnerabilities in IT servers.
Previously, I had the privilege to intern at the Dubai Electronic Security Center (Govt. of Dubai), where I deepened my understanding of the field and made meaningful contributions to the cybersecurity landscape. This experience was further enriched by participating in the Dubai Police CTF 2023, where I secured 2nd place in the University Track, demonstrating my skills in a challenging and competitive environment.
Additionally, I served as a Technical Support Engineer. My role focused on resolving client issues efficiently, enhancing product performance, and maintaining high customer satisfaction in a dynamic environment.
I am proficient in programming and scripting languages, including Python, Java, C, JavaScript, and Bash. I have hands-on experience with security tools such as Kali Linux, Burp Suite, Metasploit, Nessus, Wireshark, and Impacket. I am familiar with database technologies such as MySQL and MongoDB.
In addition to my hands-on experience, I had the opportunity to serve as a Teaching Assistant on Cybrary, assisting instructors in developing course content and creating study guides, glossaries, and quizzes for courses. My commitment to cybersecurity extends beyond professional engagements, as evidenced by my recent achievements in the 100 Days Challenge and the Dubai Police CTF, which further solidified my cybersecurity community position.
