Before Cyber Nova, I had no idea what a phishing attack looked like—now I can spot one instantly. The live Nmap and Wireshark demos were eye-opening, and I finally understand how firewalls, Linux commands, and network tools work. Learning about malware and password cracking made me rethink my digital safety. Cyber Nova turned complex cyber concepts into real-world skills in just one weekend!

Cyber Sage made cybersecurity feel less like tech jargon and more like real-life protection. I never thought learning the basics could be this engaging! From phishing and social engineering games to browser safety and password tips, every session was fun and practical. I even started enjoying Linux commands and set up 2FA on all my accounts. Now I actually get how to stay safe online

Cyber Prism gave me my first real taste of ethical hacking. From network scanning with Nmap and Netcat to hands-on CTF challenges, every part was exciting and practical. I learned about brute-force attacks, red vs. blue teaming, and even got to try tools like Burp Suite and OWASP ZAP. The mini-CTF was intense, and using Linux for enumeration made it feel real. Cyber Prism showed me that cybersecurity can be both fun and competitive

Cyber Flare gave me a solid foundation in cybersecurity from day one. The hands-on Linux lab, firewall demos, and Wireshark sessions made complex topics easy to grasp. I finally understood secure network setups, encryption types, and social engineering threats. Real examples from Indian cybersecurity incidents made it all relatable. Cyber Flare truly sparked my interest—now I’m excited to explore ethical hacking and bug bounties!

Hacktivate was more than a hackathon—it was a crash course in secure development. Building a project while learning cybersecurity in real time was intense and inspiring. Our team received valuable mentor feedback, learned to secure APIs, and even spotted flaws in our own code. Combining AI with security opened up new possibilities, and concepts like threat modeling and GitHub security finally clicked. Hacktivate showed me that innovation and security must go hand in hand.

Cyber Suraksha made me realize how easily personal data can be leaked—and how to stay safe without being a tech expert. From spotting phishing links to understanding fake OTP scams, every session was practical and relatable. I learned about social engineering, malware, 2FA, and password managers in a simple, fun way. I even shared these tips with my family. Now I feel more alert and confident online.

The Conclave was a perfect blend of technical depth and policy-level insight. Hearing from industry professionals and defense experts gave us real-world perspectives. From zero-day exploits and live pen-testing demos to AI in cybersecurity and evolving cyber laws—every session was eye-opening. The panel on national cyber policy and career guidance beyond ethical hacking were especially valuable. It wasn’t just informative—it was inspiring and full of networking opportunities.

Synergy truly lived up to its name—blending collaboration with cybersecurity learning. The hands-on simulations, team challenges, and incident response drills made everything practical and memorable. I gained insight into roles like SOC analyst and CISO, and learned the value of communication and critical thinking alongside technical skills. Exploring compliance standards like ISO 27001 and GDPR was eye-opening. Synergy left a lasting impact—both technically and personally
