Cloud security lab demonstrating real-world attack chains in AWS
- Designed a full Capture-the-Flag environment simulating production-like AWS misconfigurations
- Showcases lateral movement across segmented VPC networks using SSRF, IMDSv1 abuse, overprivileged IAM roles, and security group flaws
- Built automated infrastructure provisioning with randomized cloud misconfigurations for unique deployments
- Includes multi-tier EC2 architecture (DMZ → Internal → Restricted) and vulnerable service configurations
- Demonstrates end-to-end intrusion chain: initial access → credential theft → AWS resource enumeration → pivoting → crown-jewel data exfiltration
Automotive network simulation demonstrating multi-ECU communication, arbitration, and real-time diagnostics
- Developed a full software-based CAN (Controller Area Network) simulator modeling real automotive ECU behavior
- Implements multi-node communication across Engine, Brake, Body Control, and Infotainment ECUs
- Supports CAN 2.0B–style message arbitration, collision handling, and priority-based frame transmission
- Features diagnostic trouble code (DTC) generation, fault monitoring, and realistic message flow patterns
- Built a web dashboard for real-time traffic visualization, ECU status monitoring, and collision alerts
- Showcases embedded-systems concepts: circular buffers, state machines, binary protocols, and timing-driven execution
