Engineering Articles

I DON'T JUST BUILD. I DOCUMENT.

After designing and competing with IMPOSTR at HackaFest 2026, I broke down the entire architectural blueprint into an extensive Medium engineering post.

The article examines why single-point threat checks fail against modern phishing, how to stream DNS/WHOIS/SSL telemetry without blocking client responsiveness, and how to calibrate heuristic weights.

ENGINEERING AT THE INTERSECTION OF SECURITY & SYSTEMS.

I am a Computer Science student at Siddaganga Institute of Technology who approaches engineering from first principles. I am fascinated by what happens beneath high-level abstractions — whether analyzing network packets, parsing certificate transparency logs, or structuring resilient database schemas.

My work is driven by building real, usable software: from pitching competitive security prototypes under hackathon constraints to shipping production websites that regional businesses rely on every day.
