Prithvi Ethiraj

Hey there! I’m Prithvi — a passionate cybersecurity enthusiast with a curious mind and a love for ethical hacking. Currently sharpening my skills in penetration testing, malware analysis, and digital forensics, with a goal to become a top-tier cybersecurity professional. I enjoy exploring how systems work and break, learning about new threats, and turning challenges into opportunities to grow.

I’m a cybersecurity enthusiast with hands-on experience in threat analysis, vulnerability research, and ethical hacking practices. I’ve worked on simulated attack labs, explored tools like Metasploit, Burp Suite, and Wireshark, and built a solid foundation in Linux, networking, and malware behavior. With a strong understanding of both offensive (Red Team) and defensive (Blue Team) tactics, I’m continuously learning how to detect, analyze, and defend against real-world cyber threats.

I bring a curious mindset, problem-solving attitude, and a passion for breaking systems ethically to help secure them. Currently focused on mastering penetration testing, malware analysis, and threat intelligence to become a full-stack cybersecurity professional.

Completed foundational training in Cybersecurity and Ethical Hacking, with strong focus on Linux, Networking, System Security, and Penetration Testing.
