I’m Iresh Chirantha, a cybersecurity undergraduate from Colombo, Sri Lanka, deeply interested in penetration testing and building practical security skills through ethical hacking. I enjoy analyzing systems logically, finding weaknesses, and turning that work into clear, well-structured technical reporting. Through academic labs and online cybersecurity exercises, I’ve worked with tools like Nmap, Kali Linux, Burp Suite, Metasploit, and OpenVAS for reconnaissance, vulnerability assessment, and authorized exploitation in controlled environments. I also strengthen my security understanding by mapping threat scenarios to MITRE ATT&CK and identifying risks and mitigations aligned with relevant compliance requirements.
