Cybersecurity & Ethical Hacking student at Coventry University. Focused on malware analysis, penetration testing, and building security tools that matter.
I'm Rajan Bhatta, a cybersecurity student based in Kathmandu, Nepal, studying for my Bachelor's at Coventry University through Softwarica College.
My main interest is Malware Analysis — understanding how malicious software behaves, persists, and evades detection in isolated lab environments. I pair this with hands-on Penetration Testing and Digital Forensics through real projects and continuous self-study.
I regularly work through CTF challenges, practice Linux privilege escalation, and explore low-level concepts like buffer overflows and heap exploitation. I want to understand systems deeply enough to both break and secure them.
Studying malware behavior in fully isolated VM environments. Static analysis covers PE headers, file structure, and strings. Dynamic analysis includes process behavior monitoring, network calls, and registry changes. Documenting persistence mechanisms and obfuscation techniques found in real-world samples.
GitHubCustom Python network scanner with ping sweep, port scanning, service detection, and basic OS fingerprinting. Built using Scapy and raw socket programming.
GitHubPython-based IDS using signature detection via regex patterns and anomaly detection for suspicious traffic. Includes an email alert system for real-time threat notifications.
GitHubLogin systems using PHP & MySQL, identifying SQL injection and XSS vulnerabilities, and building secure session-based authentication as part of web security coursework.
GitHubOpen to penetration testing internships, security research collaborations, and CTF team opportunities. Based in Kathmandu — available for remote work worldwide.
