About

🌟 Welcome to my LinkedIn! I'm Amal Krishna, a dedicated Computer Science graduate and cybersecurity aficionado. 🌐 Holding a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University Of Kerala, I have specialized in Cybersecurity and Ethical Hacking through extensive coursework and certifications from the Keltron Knowledge Center. My focus areas include network security, operating system security, cloud security, and advanced routing protocols. Proficient in languages like C, HTML/CSS, and SQL, I leverage tools such as VS Code, Kali Linux, Metasploit, Wireshark, Burp Suite, and Aircrack-ng to ensure robust security solutions. 🔐 My experience culminates in practical projects like an Expense Tracker and a Crop Yield Prediction system, reflecting my strong analytical skills and innovative mindset. At Cyber Crime PS in Thiruvananthapuram, I gained valuable real-world experience in cybersecurity and ethical hacking, reinforcing my theoretical knowledge with practical exposure. 🛡️ As I further my expertise in Routing and Switching Technologies, I am excited about the future of technology and security. My aspiration is to join forward-thinking teams and contribute to securing digital landscapes. Let's connect to discuss cybersecurity, networking technologies, or potential project collaborations. Feel free to browse through my LinkedIn profile or contact me directly for more information! 📲
