My Cybersecurity Research Reached National Headlines and Secured 200,000+ Student Records

A critical vulnerability on the official website of a major public university in Kerala allowed unauthenticated access to backend systems, exposing personal and academic data of 200,000+ students and alumni, including contact details, government IDs (Aadhaar), photographs, and academic records.

I responsibly disclosed the issue to Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) with a detailed remediation report. CERT-In coordinated with the university, and the vulnerability was successfully fixed, preventing large-scale data misuse.
