Arindam Singh
Research Intern, DRDO Headquarters — Ministry of Defence
Executive Summary
Cybersecurity student focused on offensive security and practical attack simulation — reconnaissance, exploitation, and vulnerability discovery under time pressure. That same instinct carries into AI-assisted security analytics: systems for malware behavior correlation, threat intelligence mapping, and automated vulnerability prioritization.
Comfortable across Kali Linux, Burp Suite, Metasploit, Recon-ng, and Maltego CaseFile. Experience runs from manual OWASP Top 10 testing and DAST validation to building custom tools that automate vulnerability detection.
