Projects
Lucy: Phishing URL detector
Information Security
A mobile app developed to detect phishing and fraudulent URLs using an Ensemble ML model. Features a multi-layered security pipeline with input sanity checks, HTML content and redirection analysis, domain age evaluation, and more. Integrates SHAP-based explainability to highlight key risk factors.
Attack Graph Generator for Critical Infrastructure
Threat Modelling
A PPO based RL agent that generates attack graphs for ICS networks, designed to assist Red Teams in planning phase. Trained on various Erdos-Rényi topologies with a custom reward function, it covers 7 of 12 MITRE ATT&CK ICS phases.
Authentication Scheme for UWANs
Underwater IoT Security
A final year project focused on securing communication in Underwater Acoustic Sensor Networks. Developed a hybrid authentication scheme using Time Reversal CIR as the primary method and ML-based PUFs as a secondary mechanism.
AI Log Analyzer
Digital Forensics
Web app that uses Gemini API to analyze XML format log files. Provides various analytics such as suspicious logs, log severity level, peak activity and more.
Encrypted Proxy Server
Network Layer Security
Used python language to create TCP Client and Server that communicate via a Forwarder which acts as the proxy. The communication is enrypter with XOR encryption technique.
