Rahul Kandel

Hi, I'm Rahul Kandel, a Master of Information Technology (Cyber Security) student at Charles Darwin University. Learning about ethical hacking and digital defence sparked my curiosity and motivated me to specialise in cyber security. I joined the CDU IT Code Fair to step outside my usual coursework, expand my network, and develop new skills. As part of the team, I help with multimedia and events by capturing moments on camera and creating content. The experience has strengthened my communication skills and introduced me to people I might not have met otherwise. Looking ahead, my goal is to build a career within Darwin's IT industry, ideally in a cyber security role.
