About Kapil
Hi, I’m Kapil Bavisiya, a passionate Application Security Analyst with 4 years of professional experience in the cybersecurity field. I hold a M.Eng in Information Systems Security from Concordia University and B.Tech in Computer Science. My expertise lies in ethical hacking, penetration testing, and uncovering vulnerabilities in web applications and APIs.
I’ve worked as a Security Engineer at Infosys, where I conducted comprehensive penetration tests and worked with a wide range of tools like Burp Suite, Nmap, Metasploit, and OWASP ZAP to ensure applications are secure. I am also active in the cybersecurity community, participating in Capture the Flag (CTF) competitions and writing about cloud security and networking on my blog.
I’m here to guide you through the complexities of ethical hacking and vulnerability discovery, offering real-world insights and hands-on experience to help you become proficient in securing web applications and APIs.
