I'm a Computer Science student at BITS Pilani with a deep passion for cybersecurity. This is my blog site where I document CTF writeups and some android rat blogs I have written in the past. Everything here so far is from 2025, and there's plenty more coming. I would be writing more about niche malware techniques and also inspecting more about malware rat in the upcoming weeks, so stay tuned for it. I play CTFs with Team L3ak, currently i am learning more about binary exploation and i am on my way to get blue belt on pwn college
