Cybersecurity

National Security Research

CERT-In Acknowledged

7x Critical Vulnerabilities RESPONSIBLE DISCLOSURE

Discovered, chained, and reported multiple critical severity threats to CERT-In. This research averted major threat operations by sealing exposures of highly classified structural data, corporate data blocks, and securing misconfigured core network communication routing.

Presidential Recognition & Impact

Officially honored by Mr. N.N. Sharma (President, MUJ) and DSW officials with an exclusive invite to "Tea with President". These high-impact disclosures protected sensitive credentials and tactical assets belonging to national nuclear scientists and corporate executive leaders.

Unauthorized Data Access
Server Misconfiguration Chain
Sensitive Directory Exposure

Threat Vectors Disarmed:-

  • BARC & SAIL Protection: Secured strategic identity documentation and personal parameters of senior nuclear scientists and metallurgical engineers.
  • Mail Gateway Remediation: Neutralized a dangerous parsing vulnerability chain inside a live governmental communication infrastructure, preventing arbitrary command execution via the mail server layer.

Letter of Recognition

Issued by CERT-IN

Recognized by CERT-In for reporting critical security vulnerabilities impacting government and enterprise ecosystems. The disclosed findings involved sensitive data exposure risks affecting nuclear scientists, defence personnel, public-sector researchers, engineers, and corporate personnel, contributing to coordinated remediation efforts.
