Graduate student at Northeastern University. Architecting distributed systems, hunting network vulnerabilities, and dismantling tracking infrastructures. From securing ISRO's LIDAR sensors to exposing how Smart TVs fingerprint user data.
My philosophy is simple: "Everything is hackable, even your toothbrush." True engineering doesn't happen in a textbook; it happens when you break a system down to its silicon and rebuild it.
This conviction led to founding Mukti. What began as small weekend hackathons grew into one of the largest student Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) community in India. We scaled to a network of builders shipping real code, democratizing technology, and reclaiming our digital autonomy.
The mission was always the same: democratize access to real engineering knowledge — not the kind you get from a lecture, but the kind you earn by breaking things and rebuilding them better.
Two institutions. Two very different scales of infrastructure. The same question at the core: how do you secure systems that the world depends on but barely understands?
M.S. in Computer Science at Northeastern University. The focus has sharpened: network security, systems engineering, and low-level system architecture — working at the intersection where research meets real infrastructure.
Built the first de-facto OCPP testbed replicating real-world EV charging stations. Enabled simulation of attacks like SYN floods and billing exploits, empowering academia to research cybersecurity solutions for EV networks.
This project investigates the security vulnerability of covert channels within the SSH protocol, specifically addressing how data can be exfiltrated through authentication metadata rather than established connections.
A real-time Automated Incident Response System integrating threat detection, decentralized threat intelligence, and self-healing infrastructure using PySpark and ZeroMQ.
A CLI tool to detect malicious or insecure Wi-Fi networks through active and passive scanning. Identifies threats like Evil Twin, Honeypots, and Deauth attacks using Scapy and Python.
