Work Experience
Cybersecurity Intern
National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC), ISRO
Feb 2026 - Jun 2026
Designed a DNS threat detection baseline on RHEL using 10,000+ DNS records, engineering features like entropy, query frequency, NXDOMAIN ratio, and TTL anomalies. Trained Isolation Forest and XGBoost models to catch DNS tunneling, DGA domains, and beaconing behavior, then validated the pipeline through dashboards and alert visualizations. Took the validated system into production on RHEL 9.6 at NRSC, wiring together BIND9, Zeek, Grafana, Loki, Promtail, and Redis for near real-time SOC-style monitoring. Worked independently across the full pipeline — collection, detection logic, and alerting — coordinating with the ISD/SISG team on integration and review.
Enterprise Endpoint Security Monitoring & SIEM Lab
Self-directed home lab
Jan 2026 - Jan 2026
Set up Windows and Linux endpoints with Sysmon and auditd, feeding telemetry into a centralized Wazuh Manager for parsing, decoding, and storage. Wrote detection rules for repeated authentication failures, new or privileged account activity, and suspicious process execution. Ran L1-style alert triage on the detections I built — gathering evidence, judging severity, tuning out false positives, and writing up incident reports the way an analyst would.
