Who is PradyumnTiwareNexus?

Pradyumn Tiwari — known online as PradyumnTiwareNexus — is an independent Bug Bounty Hunter and Cybersecurity Researcher from India. His work centers on finding real-world vulnerabilities in web applications and APIs, then reporting them through coordinated, responsible disclosure rather than public exposure.

His research spans Web Application Security, API Security, OSINT, JavaScript Analysis, and Attack Surface Mapping, backed by self-built recon automation tooling that maps a target's exposed surface before any testing begins. Beyond bug bounty, he contributes to open-source security — auditing public repositories and publishing findings as GitHub Security Advisories once maintainers confirm and merge a fix.

That combination — hands-on vulnerability research paired with the tooling to find issues faster — has earned him Hall of Fame recognition from organizations including NASA, Microsoft, Toyota, BMW, Quick Heal, and ISRO, among others. What sets his approach apart is consistency: every acknowledgement on this page reflects a vulnerability that was reproduced, confirmed, and fixed — not just reported.

I'm Pradyumn Tiware — a Cybersecurity Researcher, Bug Bounty Hunter, and Recon Automation Developer from India. I don't just find bugs. I build the systems that find them for me.

My recon pipelines weave together OSINT, JavaScript analysis, CDX archive forensics, and API endpoint mapping — constructing a razor-sharp picture of any target's attack surface before a single payload fires. Signal over noise. Always.

When I'm not breaking things responsibly, I'm competing in CTFs, building tooling that the community actually needs, and documenting every finding that makes the internet a little safer.
