As a Graduate Teaching Assistant for the Applied Cryptography course (ENPM657), my primary goal is to provide students with a solid foundation in real-world cryptography. Throughout the course, students will explore private-key encryption, message authentication codes, key-exchange protocols, public-key encryption, and digital signatures. Additionally, they will delve into essential primitives like pseudorandom number generators, block ciphers, and hash functions. I'll strive to instill the "cryptographic mindset" by introducing formal threat modeling and proofs of security. Emphasizing real-world application, we'll cover standards, best practices, and discuss attacks on deployed systems, complemented by programming assignments to reinforce concepts. #AppliedCryptography #ENPM657 #GradTA

During my tenure as a Security Engineer (DevSecOps Specialist) at Oracle Health (Cerner) in Bangalore, India, comprehensive Security Audits were conducted, covering Static Code Analysis (SCA), Static & Dynamic Application Security Testing (SAST, DAST), and Vulnerability Assessment.Within the US Veteran Affairs domain, vulnerabilities were meticulously identified and remediated, ensuring robust protection against potential threats. Thorough secure code reviews for containers were performed, offering actionable mitigation strategies to enhance code integrity.Additionally, key roles were played in updating cybersecurity policies to align with regulatory requirements, thus bolstering data protection measures. By implementing CI/CD pipeline tools, vulnerability scanning, deployment checks, automated reporting, and dependency updates were streamlined. Moreover, optimization of detection rules and use-cases within Splunk SIEM significantly enhanced threat detection capabilities. Security training initiatives were also monitored, fostering awareness and promoting best practices among team members. Dedication to driving continuous improvement in security practices reflects a commitment to contributing to the resilience of digital ecosystems.
