Sakshats993/README.md


I'm a 2nd year Cybersecurity student from India focused on becoming a Cloud Security Engineer.

My work focuses on understanding how systems communicate, how attacks happen, and how cloud infrastructure can be secured.
I enjoy building hands‑on security projects, analyzing network traffic, and translating traditional security problems into cloud security solutions.

My long‑term goal is to design and secure resilient cloud infrastructure and applications.


🚀 Current Focus

🔹 Cloud Security Fundamentals
🔹 Network Visibility & Traffic Analysis
🔹 Web Application Security & Vulnerability Assessment
🔹 Security Automation with Python & Bash
🔹 Threat Modeling & Secure Architecture
🔹 Multi‑Cloud Security Awareness (Azure + AWS)
