Jaikiran E
Cybersecurity Student — Penetration Testing, Application Security, Bug Bounty
Executive Profile
I'm a B.E CSE (Cyber Security) student at RMK College of Engineering and Technology with a strong interest in cybersecurity, ethical hacking and real-world problem solving. I actively compete in CTFs — web exploitation, OSINT, reverse engineering, cryptography, network security — and hunt for vulnerabilities through Bugcrowd. Alongside security, I build web and Android applications, explore AI/MCP workflows and automation, and share what I learn on YouTube.
