Projects

●Machine Learning Based Intrusion Detection System: I implemented a machine learning based Intrusion detection system. The system was implemented using Python and I used my own dataset to train and test the IDS module. I generated the multiple attack traffics using Metasploit installed in Centos VirtualBox to attack a VM running Metasploitable. And I used Pythorch to implement and train a ML using LSTM algorithm. I used Wireshark to sniff the data and used python to parse through the captured data to get the encrypted payload in order to make the IDS more resilient in face of zero day attacks.

●Firewall in Ubuntu using Python: I implemented a Firewall mechanism to filter/block data packets based on the IP address, protocols (TCP/UDP/ICMP) and port number using Python on Ubuntu Virtual Machine. Also used Wireshark to sniff and examine packet headers and details while modifying the firewall code.

Experience

Python Instructor Silicon Valley Polytechnic Institute July 2018 - Present

I constructed a syllabus to introduce Python to students with no prior experience on programming. My responsibilities includes teaching the fundamental of programming using Python, assign milestones projects to make sure students have a solid understanding of the topics introduced so far.
