About Aryan Vir

HI’m Aryan Vir — a Cybersecurity Analytics and Operations major at Penn State University with a minor in Security and Risk Analysis. I’m passionate about ethical hacking, red teaming, and exploring complex systems to uncover vulnerabilities before attackers do.My journey started with curiosity and has grown into hands-on experience. At Corizo, I worked as a bug bounty intern, identifying real-world vulnerabilities in platforms like IBM and Auth0. The role sharpened my technical, analytical, and collaboration skills.My current interests lie in offensive security, penetration testing, and threat detection. I’m constantly expanding my skill set across tools and languages like Python, PowerShell, Rust, React, and MS SQL. I also bring a strong foundation in networking, risk analysis, and system literacy from my coursework and certifications.What drives me is the challenge and the purpose — to secure digital systems, protect users, and outthink adversaries. I’m actively seeking internships or research opportunities in cybersecurity to further grow, contribute, and innovate.Let’s connect — I’m always open to learning from fellow security enthusiasts, mentors, and professionals.
