Vamsi Krishna

I am a Cybersecurity graduate with hands-on experience in penetration testing, web application security, vulnerability assessment, bug bounty hunting, CTFs, and security analysis. I have been actively learning and practicing cybersecurity since 2023 through hands-on labs, CTF challenges, independent security research, and real-world vulnerability disclosure programs.

I hold a B.Tech degree in Cybersecurity and have completed certifications/training including Fortinet Certified Associate in Cybersecurity, Cisco Networking Academy Ethical Hacker, CyberThreya Elite Mastery, and other cybersecurity programs. I am also preparing for/working toward CompTIA Security+.

My key skills include Web Application Penetration Testing, Vulnerability Assessment, Burp Suite, Nmap, Nessus, Metasploit, Wireshark, Kali Linux, Linux, networking, OWASP security concepts, SIEM fundamentals, Splunk, Python basics, and security reporting.

My accomplishments include responsibly reporting security vulnerabilities to organizations through bug bounty programs, participating in TCS HackQuest Season 10 and qualifying for the second round, completing practical CTF challenges, and developing cybersecurity projects such as a rule-based security awareness and incident guidance platform.

I am particularly interested in teaching practical cybersecurity fundamentals, ethical hacking, web application security, networking, Linux, CTF methodology, and beginner-level penetration testing. I focus on explaining technical concepts in a simple, practical, and hands-on manner so that students can understand not only the theory but also how the concepts are applied in real-world security scenarios.
