working software.

A closer look at the problems, the implementation, and the decisions behind my projects.

01 SECURITY ENGINEERING

MANTIS.

Making network threats visible.

A research prototype that brings five detection engines, live monitoring, offline packet replay, and incident reporting into one Python system.

Inside the projectEngineering decisions & evidence

The challenge

Different network threats leave different signals. MANTIS combines statistical, classification, clustering, and membership checks in one inspectable detection pipeline.

The implementation

Python powers the detection engines and dashboard. JSON preserves model state; CSV audit logs, HTML reports, PCAP export, and UDP sensor telemetry support investigation.

A deliberate decision

Offline PCAP replay makes controlled demonstrations repeatable without live capture privileges. Optional firewall response is disabled by default.

Evidence & scope

The repository documents 119 automated tests across engines, parsing, replay, APIs, training, and persistence. This is controlled verification, not a production accuracy claim.

02 ANDROID ENGINEERING

Still

Local DNS filtering with an approachable interface, custom domain rules, and a private browsing session.

Source code ↗Android releases ↗
Behind the build

The problem

Give Android users understandable control over DNS filtering without disrupting ordinary web traffic.

The engineering

A narrow virtual DNS route keeps unrelated traffic outside the tunnel. Protected upstream sockets, response validation, bounded workers, and packet checksum tests support the networking layer.

The experience

Compose and Material 3 provide onboarding, protection controls, settings, and persistent lifetime counters. Optional domain history remains in memory; private browsing pauses domain logging.

The boundary

DNS filtering can be bypassed by encrypted or app-specific resolvers. This is not an encrypted VPN. Live filter downloads remained unverified on the connection documented in the latest README.

03 MOBILE & SECURITY

Prism Scanner

Scan barcodes, extract text, create QR codes, and inspect suspicious payloads before opening them.

KotlinCameraXML KitZXing
Source code ↗Android preview ↗
Behind the build

The problem

A code can conceal a destination or action. Scanning should help a person understand the payload before acting on it.

The engineering

CameraX and bundled ML Kit models handle scanning and Latin-script OCR locally. ZXing generates codes. A pure Kotlin analyzer flags suspicious URL and text patterns.

The decision

Separate detection from action. Browser navigation requires confirmation, unsupported schemes cannot launch, and warnings pause batch scanning. Private JSON storage keeps up to 300 history records.

The evidence

The repository includes generator, template, and analyzer unit tests plus device smoke tests. The downloadable build is a debug-signed preview; heuristic checks cannot guarantee that a destination is safe.

02 / A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Curious about
the whole system.

I’m a BSc (Hons) Computing student at the University of Northampton, based in Kathmandu and expecting to graduate in 2027.

My work spans full-stack development, Android, and network security. I also enjoy the work that helps people use software: investigating problems, writing setup guides, checking behaviour, and explaining a solution clearly. I’m interested in development and entry-level technical support opportunities.
