Offensive Security Consultant | AWS SAA C03 | CRTE | CRTP | CEH

About

I'm an offensive security professional with 4 years of experience in red team operations, web and API penetration testing, Active Directory attack simulation, and cloud security assessment. I currently work as an offensive security consultant, delivering end-to-end penetration tests and red team engagements for enterprise clients — from scoping and testing through findings reports and remediation guidance. Previously, I worked in offensive security at the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), assessing large-scale fintech applications and conducting organization-wide red team exercises. Across my career I've performed 40+ security assessments spanning web applications, APIs, infrastructure, and AD environments. My responsible disclosure work has earned Hall of Fame recognition from the Dutch Government, Pinterest, Under Armour, and TripAdvisor. Certifications: AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate (SAA-C03), Certified Red Team Expert (CRTE), Certified Red Team Professional (CRTP), Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH). Outside of work, I hunt bugs in bounty programs, play CTFs, and write about security on Medium (sanyamchawla1999.medium.com).
