Hi, my name is

Karuturi Prasanth Chowdary

Security Enthusiast | Blue Team Specialist | Cyber Researcher

About Me

Hey there! I'm Prasanth, a curious and passionate cybersecurity enthusiast, always eager to dig deeper into how things really work not just what they do, but why they do it.

My journey into cybersecurity began with curiosity the kind that makes you question every request, inspect every packet, and dive into every unexpected behavior. I see cybersecurity not just as a career, but as a mindset: it's less about the tools and more about thinking critically and staying one step ahead.

I have knowledge across multiple domains in cybersecurity, including networking, digital forensics, penetration testing, and security analysis. This wide exposure helps me tackle problems from different angles and connect the dots across the entire security landscape.

I'm constantly learning, experimenting, and evolving driven by a genuine love for problem-solving and a passion for protecting the digital world.

Projects

Wazuh EDR Threat Detection and Attack Simulation Using Atomic Red Team

Deployed a comprehensive Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solution using Wazuh to monitor and detect cyber attacks in real time. Leveraged Atomic Red Team framework to simulate MITRE ATT&CK techniques, configured Sysmon for detailed endpoint logging, and created custom detection rules for threat monitoring.

Real-Time Network Intrusion Detection Using Snort and Splunk

Deployed Snort on Ubuntu with custom rules to detect Nmap scans, SSH brute-force, reverse shells, and ICMP floods. Integrated Snort alerts with Splunk for real-time analysis and dashboards.

Real-Time Threat Detection and Analysis Using Splunk SIEM

Implemented a centralized threat detection and monitoring solution using Splunk. The system was designed to ingest, parse, and visualize various log sources including SSH, FTP, and web login attempts, simulating real-world attacker behavior using tools like Hydra and Gobuster from a Kali Linux machine.

SIEM Implementation and Honeypot Setup

Deployed a SIEM solution using the ELK Stack to collect and analyze logs from honeypots, including Cowrie and a fake login page. Configured Filebeat for log forwarding and built Kibana dashboards to detect brute-force attacks and network scans in real time.

Subnet Calculator

An interactive IPv4 subnet calculator that helps users quickly determine subnet details such as network and broadcast addresses, usable host ranges, and more. Supports both CIDR and traditional subnet mask formats, with real-time binary visualization for better understanding of IP addressing.
