About Me

I'm a cybersecurity and AI researcher with an MSc in Computer Forensics & Cybersecurity from the University of Greenwich, London. I specialize in penetration testing, AI-powered security systems, and building secure data pipelines at the intersection of offensive security and applied AI. My work includes automating SOC workflows with RAG and building LLM-driven security intelligence platforms.

Experience

Cybersecurity and AI Researcher

QantusLab

Chennai, India

August 2025 – Present
  • Built RAG-based security intelligence systems that retrieve threat intel (MITRE ATT&CK data, logs) and generate real-time insights for analysts, improving detection quality and reducing investigation time.
  • Automated SOC workflows using AI + RAG, enabling enriched alert summaries, correlation of threats across logs, and AI-assisted incident response while maintaining strict cybersecurity best practices.
  • Developed secure data ingestion & retrieval pipelines with access control, encryption, and metadata filtering to ensure compliance and prevent leakage of sensitive security logs or incident data.

Product Security Intern

NM Software Solutions

Newcastle, UK

June 2023 – June 2025
  • Conducted black-box and white-box pentests on web apps/APIs, uncovering high-risk vulnerabilities (OWASP) and delivering actionable fixes using tools like Burp Suite, ZAP, SQLMap, and Postman.
  • Exploit Validation & API Security: Developed and executed proof-of-concept exploits to validate vulnerabilities in APIs and backend services; verified fixes and regression-tested endpoints post-remediation.
  • Detection & Incident Triage: Correlated SIEM (Splunk) logs with test activity to detect real-world exploitation paths, performed root-cause analysis, and supported rapid incident response.

Projects

AI Linux Agent

A distributed system enabling remote Linux command execution through natural language prompts via an AI-powered web interface. Uses Google Gemini + LangChain for command decomposition, real-time WebSocket communication, and Firebase authentication. Supports multi-machine monitoring and complex operations like installation, file management, and service control.
