πŸ›‘οΈ Executive Summary

I am a Cybersecurity Engineer and Security Researcher specializing in Application Security (AppSec), Threat Intelligence, and Security Automation. With deep foundations in both offensive security (penetration testing, exploit behavior, attack surface mapping) and defensive software engineering, I design and build resilient open-source tools and enterprise-grade web applications.

  • πŸ” Application Security: Vulnerability assessment, OWASP Top 10 mitigation, secure code auditing, and automated AST/DAST scanning.
  • 🎯 Threat Detection: Anti-phishing classifiers, real-time URL inspection heuristics, browser security extensions, and malware intelligence querying.
  • βš™οΈ Systems & Architecture: Multi-threaded network programming in C (POSIX sockets), compiler construction (Lex/Yacc), and full-stack development with Python, TypeScript, and modern frameworks.
  • 🌐 Active Research & Writeups: Practical security breakdowns, project demos, and research notes published on akhilbinu.in.
