About Pankaj Isharwal
Certified Ethical Hacker, Certified Security Professional and income tax return consultant.
Biography
I am Pankaj Isharwal, a cybersecurity professional from Isharwal village in Bhiwani district, Haryana. I hold the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH), Certified Security Professional (CSP) and Cyber Security FTC&P certifications.
My work started with a simple observation: most people who lose money online are not careless, they are caught off guard by a convincing story. I explain how those stories work, in Hindi and English, so people can recognise them early.
Alongside security, I file income tax returns for individuals, freelancers and small businesses. In 2025 I received an award for an electrical engineering project, which shaped how I think about building systems that stay safe when something goes wrong.
My aim is to protect ordinary people from cyber crime and to help build a safer digital India.
