Profile
I have started my learning journey in late of year 2021, with a steep learning curve as a complete IT novice fresh out of high school.
Research: With determination, I got myself into research, reading resources, materials, and concepts. I explored various platforms to hone my skills, laying the foundation for my technological understanding.
Mid-2022: By mid-2022, computers no longer held mysteries. I had built a solid foundation in networking fundamentals and secured an adequate grasp of basic security principles.
Security domain exploration (late 2022): Late 2022 marked the exciting foray into the realm of security. I explored deep into the diverse subdomains, eager to laern about their secrets.
Early 2023: By early 2023, my knowledge of Security Operations, Red Teaming, and Penetration Testing had evolved into a formidable skillset.
From then on I put on knowledge to test by participating in various CTFs, challenges and Pwnbox challenges, I learned many things along the way. Each competition, a valuable lesson, refined my skills and deepened my understanding.
While interested in collaborative security exercises like purple teaming, my ultimate passion lies in the intricacies of offensive security. While exploring the collaborative world of purple teaming, I'm simultaneously enriching my understanding of DevOps, Red teaming, CVEs and many more things and its impact on security landscapes. While for now this is all I have to say about my journey, as for my professional future plans is to get some certifications which are costly for me so I did not took them while being a student, this often interpreted as that I am not much qualified without actually knowing my work or skills.
