Hi, I’m Akshat Agarwal, a cybersecurity enthusiast and BCA (Hons.) student at Christ University, Bangalore, India.
I’m currently studying for the CompTIA Security+ certification, and this blog is where I document my journey — from tutorials and notes to projects and practical cybersecurity insights.

This platform is also part of my effort to build a strong profile for applying to internships in cybersecurity.
If you’re a beginner, a fellow learner, or a recruiter — you’re in the right place.

🚀 What You’ll Find Here

This blog is focused on sharing:

  • 🛠️ Hands-on Tutorials – Tools like Wireshark, Nmap, Burp Suite, etc.
  • 📘 Security+ Study Notes – Simplified topics with examples
  • 🕵️ Threat Intelligence Deep Dives – On ransomware, social engineering, IABs, etc.
  • 🤖 Projects & Mini Labs – Raspberry Pi hacks, robot car builds, and more
  • 🧠 Beginner-Friendly Explainers – Breaking down technical stuff in a simple way

All articles are written to be visual, practical, and easy to understand — perfect for newcomers or self-learners.

🎯 Why This Blog?

Most of my learning comes from the community — open-source tools, YouTube, blogs, forums.
Now I’m giving back by writing my own guides and tutorials to help others, while also building my public profile for future opportunities.

🔜 Coming Soon

First project dropping soon:
🕵️‍♂️ “Reconnaissance 101: Mapping a Real Network Using Nmap, theHarvester & Shodan”

I’ll walk you through how I used OSINT tools to ethically gather public information about a real organization — mapping open ports, subdomains, emails, and exposed services.

Whether you’re a beginner or prepping for Security+, this project will help you understand how attackers think — and how defenders can reduce their footprint.

🧰 Tools Used: Nmap, theHarvester, DNSDumpster, Shodan 📊 Deliverables: Full step-by-step guide, screenshots, GitHub repo, and blog write-up 📚 Learning Outcomes: Real-world reconnaissance skills, ethical awareness, and network mapping

Stay tuned! 🚀
