Practical Junior Penetration Tester
Hi, my name is Rohan. I discovered my passion for cybersecurity when I was young initially through game exploits. However, it was only until 2021 that I actively pursued it. Since then, I've explored the many aspects of it, pursued a Diploma in Cybersecurity & Digital Forensics, embarked on a couple of projects as well as gained various certifications. Through this journey of exploring, I have also developed a strong interest in programming and how I can use it to solve many of the problems I face. I am a strategic thinker with effective communication and social skills. I also have an inquisitive mind. I love to learn new skills and step out of my comfort zone. I believe these are all unique, valuable abilities of mine that makes me who I am. Over the years, I've also developed a strong determination to succeed in all that I do and to constantly pursue excellence.
As part of my group project Operation Ghostnet, created a secure mobile communication app in Flutter called 'PhantomLink' and implemented various security features such as a VPN, biometrics and geo-locking.

"In all, what was most impressive about Rohan is that he truly puts in his best effort into every
piece of work, regardless of whether the work is challenging or mundane. I am personally
impressed that despite his young age, Rohan managed to go toe-to-toe with his much more
senior colleagues, and truly made himself their peer. He demonstrated initiative, maturity and
independence, and an all around positive attitude. His determination, resilience, and
communication skills make him a joy to work with."
