Objective

Results-driven Cybersecurity Specialist, IT Executive, and SOC Analyst with over a decade of hands-on experience spanning penetration testing, network engineering, CCTV security architecture, and enterprise IT project management. I bring a rare combination of deep technical expertise and entrepreneurial leadership — having founded and managed multiple technology ventures serving both government and private-sector clients across Sri Lanka.

My work in ethical hacking and vulnerability research has directly contributed to securing national-level infrastructure, with notable security disclosures and coordinated patch work across high-profile Sri Lankan organizations. I am equally passionate about next-generation technologies including AI-powered MCP agents, IoT smart-home integration, and SOC operations — and I actively build open-source tools that bridge complex security challenges with real-world usability.

Seeking a senior-level opportunity where I can leverage my multi-disciplinary skill set to drive organizational security posture, lead innovative technology initiatives, and deliver measurable impact at scale.

Security Research & Ethical Hacking

Disclaimer: All security research, web defacements, and penetration tests listed below were conducted as part of ethical security research and bug bounty activities. Upon identifying vulnerabilities, responsible disclosure was made to affected administrators, and patching assistance was provided. This work has directly improved the security posture of multiple Sri Lankan government and private organizations.

200+ Sites Researched
200+ Mirror Records*
10+ Yrs Experience

* Early mirror records (~200 pages) were hosted on mirror-h.org. The mirror-h database was later compromised and dropped in a cyberattack, resulting in loss of those historical records.

Jatika Rupavahini Corporation (National TV) Flagship Research Sri Lanka #1

Identified and exploited a critical web vulnerability in Sri Lanka's national television broadcaster — Rupavahini.lk — in 2013. After demonstrating the vulnerability, coordinated with the web administrators to patch and secure the platform. Documented the full process for security awareness.

Zone-H Defacement Archive 200+ Records

Over 200 documented web security research cases mirrored on Zone-H under the notifier alias "blackwood". Each case involved identifying web application vulnerabilities (SQL injection, XSS, misconfiguration), demonstrating impact, and notifying administrators for remediation. Note: Earlier records on mirror-h.org were lost when that platform's database was attacked and dropped.
