As a Cyber Security Trainer at Lucknow Public College of Professional Studies, I mentor and train students across multiple technology domains, with a primary focus on Cyber Security while also providing guidance in Web Development, Programming, Networking, Linux, Cloud Computing, AI, and other emerging technologies. My objective is to bridge the gap between academic learning and industry expectations by helping students build strong technical fundamentals and practical skills. I follow a project-based learning methodology where every concept is reinforced through hands-on labs, real-world projects, Capture The Flag (CTF) challenges, security assessments, and practical assignments. Students learn by building, breaking, fixing, and documenting solutions, enabling them to develop analytical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and confidence in handling real industry scenarios. My training covers topics such as Web Application Security, Network Security, API Security, Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing (VAPT), Secure Coding Practices, OSINT, Linux Administration, Git/GitHub, and modern development workflows. I also guide students in using industry-standard tools and methodologies while emphasizing ethical hacking principles and responsible security practices. Beyond technical training, I mentor students in career planning, resume building, interview preparation, technical communication, and professional development. I encourage continuous learning, research, open-source contributions, documentation, teamwork, and innovation, helping students build strong portfolios, complete industry-oriented projects, and prepare for internships, certifications, bug bounty programs, and full-time technology careers.

As a Security Researcher at AiCyber.Guru, I conduct in-depth security research on modern cyber threats, web applications, APIs, and cloud environments to identify vulnerabilities and emerging attack techniques. My work focuses on understanding real-world security risks and improving the overall security posture of applications and systems. I perform vulnerability assessments and penetration testing (VAPT), validate security findings through proof-of-concept (PoC) development, and analyze the impact of identified vulnerabilities. I prepare detailed technical reports with clear risk assessments and practical remediation recommendations for development and security teams. In addition to technical research, I contribute to security documentation, knowledge sharing, and awareness initiatives by creating research content on current cybersecurity trends, exploitation techniques, and defensive best practices. I collaborate with cross-functional teams to promote secure development practices and support continuous security improvement.

Worked as an IoT Engineer, contributing to the development and testing of IoT-based projects. Assisted in sensor integration, embedded systems programming, hardware-software interfacing, and troubleshooting. Collaborated with the team to deliver functional IoT solutions while gaining practical experience in networking, Linux, and system deployment.
