Ankit Kumar R.
Penetration Tester | VAPT | Web, API & Network Security
Hi, I’m Ankit, I’m a penetration tester and cybersecurity consultant with 8 years of experience helping businesses identify and fix security vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them. I specialize in securing web applications, APIs, cloud environments, internal networks, Microsoft 365, and Google Workspace. I also help organizations strengthen their security posture and prepare for compliance requirements such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and HIPAA. If you’re looking to uncover vulnerabilities before attackers do, strengthen your security posture, or prepare for an upcoming compliance audit, you’re in the right place. How I Help Businesses Stay Secure 🚨 Penetration Testing End-to-end security testing for web applications, APIs, mobile applications, and infrastructure. You’ll receive more than a list of vulnerabilities—I provide clear, practical remediation guidance your development and security teams can act on. 🚨 Microsoft 365 & Google Workspace Security A comprehensive assessment and hardening of your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace environment. I review identity and access controls, email security, authentication, data sharing, and configuration settings to identify misconfigurations that could expose your users or sensitive business data. 🚨 Cloud Security & Compliance Readiness I assess and harden cloud environments to reduce security risks and help your organization prepare for industry standards and regulatory requirements, including SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and more. My goal is simple: find the weaknesses, explain the risk clearly, and help you fix them effectively, before they become costly security incidents.
