Cybersecurity & IoT Enthusiast

About Me

I'm a second-year BSc Internet of Things (IoT) student with a passion for cybersecurity, automation, and building real-world projects that solve everyday problems. Currently working on Titan AI, a smart Raspberry Pi–based assistant that combines AI, voice, and automation with security in mind. I’m also exploring ethical hacking, Linux scripting, network analysis, and how cybersecurity principles can be applied in smart devices.

Cybersecurity Interests

Ethical Hacking (CEH-inspired labs and tools) Linux Hardening & Scripting Network Scanning (Nmap, Wireshark) OSINT (Open-Source Intelligence) Web Application Security (Basic testing with Burp Suite, OWASP Top 10) Capture the Flag (CTF) Challenges on TryHackMe, Hack The Box (Beginner Level)

Projects

Titan AI Assistant

Raspberry Pi–based AI assistant with voice input, intelligent responses, automation, and logging.

Built using: Python, Linux, Whisper, OpenAI TTS, Telegram Bot API Custom Telegram logging for AI conversations and history Can be extended for smart home automation or system control Modular architecture for future upgrades (e.g., security alerts, camera integration)

Custom Telegram Logger

A tool that sends real-time logs and history from Titan AI to two separate Telegram channels.

Ensures persistent conversation history Useful for AI debugging, personal logs, or multi-user tracking

Simple Network Scanner

A basic Python script using socket and nmap to scan local networks for open ports and devices.
