About me

Hi, I’m Aayush Samriya - an aspiring Offensive Security Professional and passionate Pentester. With a strong foundation in cybersecurity, programming, and ethical hacking, I thrive on uncovering real-world vulnerabilities and strengthening digital defenses.

I have hands-on experience in bug bounties, CTFs, and web application security, and I’m an active contributor on platforms like TryHackMe (Top 1% globally) and Hack The Box. My technical toolkit is anchored in Python, and I hold the CEH (Master) certification, which I achieved at age 17 as a testament to my early commitment to ethical hacking...

Currently, I am deepening my expertise by completing HTB Academy’s offensive security modules and following the CRTO (Certified Red Team Operator) roadmap-with the goal of earning the CRTO certification soon. I am always eager to learn, break, and build in the dynamic world of cyber.
