Who Am I?

A Curious Beginning

I am Surya, also known by my hacker name, nilah—a hacker, a seeker, and a guardian of the digital world. But before I became any of that, I was just a curious soul staring at a screen, asking myself: How does all of this work?

That curiosity quickly turned into an obsession. Late nights blurred into early mornings as I explored deeper, breaking things just to understand them. I wasn’t satisfied with just using technology—I needed to understand it, control it, and master it. However, walking this path alone wasn’t easy.

Failures became my greatest teachers. Each time I fell, I picked myself up, learned from my mistakes, and kept going. With every small victory, my hunger for knowledge grew stronger, pushing me beyond my limits.

The Turning Point

Everything changed when I received an invitation—a call to adventure—from StrawHat Pranav. Recognizing my potential, he welcomed me into the StrawHat Hackers—a crew of brilliant minds driven by the same hunger for knowledge and challenge.

This wasn’t just a team; it was a family. No longer was I a lone explorer navigating the vast ocean of cybersecurity. Now, I had a crew that challenged me, supported me, and made me better.

Together, we take on CTFs, crack impossible challenges, defend systems, and uncover vulnerabilities before they can be exploited. Each challenge we conquer and every lesson we learn brings us closer to true mastery of the digital world.

But hacking isn’t just about breaking things—it’s about understanding them. More importantly, it’s about protecting those who can’t protect themselves and securing the future of cyberspace. With great knowledge comes great responsibility, and we embrace that duty wholeheartedly.

Sailing Toward the Future

I don’t hack for chaos. I hack for the future. The thrill of discovery, the responsibility of safeguarding systems, and the unbreakable bond of my crew keep me moving forward.

The ocean of cybersecurity is vast, unpredictable, and ever-changing. But with my map, my crew, and my will to conquer it, I am ready.

The tides are shifting. And I’m prepared to ride the waves.
