Rivek Raj Tamang

// FOUNDER,SECURITY RESEARCHER & ETHICAL HACKER

Rivek started Hack-R Academy after realising that most cybersecurity resources were either too expensive or too scattered for beginners. He began his own ethical hacking journey by following free resources online, participating in bug bounty programs, and learning through hands-on practice. After achieving a Hall of Fame recognition/Finding bugs/securing the data of numerous companies and government, he decided to build a community where others could follow a similar path — without the noise and cost. Today he leads the platform's content direction and mentors students through the WhatsApp group and LinkedIn page.
