About Me
I'm Salon Shrestha, an 18-year-old from Nepal with a passion for ethical hacking and cybersecurity. I am driven by the idea of securing digital systems and preventing malicious attacks. Although I’m still in school, I’ve been actively learning about penetration testing and security practices, particularly through platforms like Kali Linux and tools like Metasploit and Burp Suite. My journey is just beginning, but I’m committed to growing in the field of cybersecurity and ethical hacking. This portfolio serves as a reflection of my skills, projects, and goals to further my knowledge.
