DevFest Talk
Spoke at Google DevFest 2024 on "Cybersecurity for Beginners" — an inspiring session as part of the security track curated by my team at R.U.D.R.A Cybersecurity Pvt. Ltd. I shared foundational knowledge to help newcomers understand threats, tools, and the mindset needed in today's cyber landscape. It was an honor to stand alongside brilliant minds and contribute to such a valuable community event.
Breach Force
Spoke at Breach Force on "Automated Reconnaissance & Attack Surface Management" — two pillars of modern offensive security. I explored how automation streamlines asset discovery and strengthens overall defense. Sharing insights and helping others grow in cybersecurity always feels rewarding. Huge thanks to the Breach Force community for the opportunity!
- Introduced key automation techniques in reconnaissance.
- Explained real-world applications of attack surface management.
- Shared toolchains used by red teams and bug bounty hunters.
- Discussed how to reduce blind spots through continuous scanning.
- Highlighted the shift from manual recon to scalable automation.
ETS Group
As the founder of ETS Group, I lead initiatives aimed at enhancing cybersecurity awareness and empowering aspiring ethical hackers through hands-on workshops, live practicals, and community events. I mentor students in understanding real-world cyber threats, guide them through ethical hacking methodologies, and support them in preparing for industry certifications like the CEH exam. My goal is to help them kickstart their careers in cybersecurity and contribute to building a safer, more secure digital world.
- Taught students the fundamentals of cybersecurity and ethical hacking.
- Conducted live practical sessions covering reconnaissance, exploitation, and defense.
- Mentored participants in preparing for the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) exam.
- Built a community of learners committed to responsible hacking practices.
- Helped students kickstart careers in penetration testing and cybersecurity research.

Technosope 2024
🏆 Won 2nd Prize at International Technoscope 2024 for designing and developing a Multipurpose AgriBot — an autonomous robotic system aimed at revolutionizing traditional farming methods. The AgriBot is equipped with:
- Seed Sowing Mechanism — accurately plants seeds at uniform spacing and depth.
- Automated Irrigation — controls water flow using real-time data from a soil moisture sensor.
- Pesticide Sprayer — sprays pesticides efficiently to reduce manual labor and chemical waste.
- Battery-Operated and Solar-Powered Options — for sustainable usage in remote areas.
- IoT Monitoring — sends live status and alerts to the farmer’s mobile app/dashboard.
This innovation was aimed at addressing labor shortages and increasing crop productivity through automation, helping small and marginal farmers adopt smart agriculture with minimal cost.
