About

The Vector 384 Philosophy.

I am Rudra Mahapatro, a Systems Engineer and the founder of Vector 384. While most build for the "happy path," I build for the war zone.

My work bridges the gap between offensive security research and production-grade infrastructure. Whether it's writing zero-copy parsers in Rust to shave milliseconds off a CI pipeline, or hand-crafting Windows-native firewalls in C to block SQL injection at the packet level, I focus on one thing: performance under pressure.

Currently, I am architecting algorithmic trading engines for the NSE markets and deploying defensive security tools for SaaS clients.

The Arsenal.

FlashAudit Core

Enterprise-Grade Secret Scanner

RustRayonMemmap2

A zero-copy security primitive built in Rust designed to replace slow regex scanners. It bypasses performance bottlenecks by using memory mapping and parallel execution.

Performance:Scans large monorepos an order of magnitude faster than Gitleaks.
Precision:Ships with 66 vendor-specific validation rules to eliminate false positives.
Integration:Emits SARIF 2.1.0 logs for native GitHub Advanced Security integration.

BioStream ML

Real-Time Surgical Telemetry Engine

PythonRedis StreamsDockerIsolation Forest

A fault-tolerant physiological anomaly detection pipeline for operating rooms. It processes real-time heart rate and SpO2 data without data loss.

Throughput:Handles ~3,000 events/second with sub-5ms latency.
Resilience:Uses Redis Streams for idempotency, ensuring zero data loss.
Intelligence:Applies Isolation Forest to detect clinical deterioration in real-time.

Proxy Server

Native Windows Firewall Proxy

C (ANSI/Win32)Raw Sockets

A multi-threaded HTTP proxy written in pure C that acts as a miniature perimeter firewall. It inspects packets for SQL Injection and Path Traversal attacks.

Defense:Automatically bans IPs that exceed 50 requests in 15 seconds.
Core:Handles concurrent connections using raw Win32 threads without external frameworks.

CredGuard

Identity Security Platform

PythonStreamlitPostgreSQLStripe

A fully monetized "Personal SOC" that monitors digital identities for credential leaks across the dark web and public repositories.

Product:Integrated Stripe billing, rate-limiting quotas, and audit-grade PDF reporting.
Analysis:Computes a risk score (0-100) using anomaly detection on breach data.

Algo-Bot

High-Frequency Trading Engine

PythonUpstox APIPandas

An event-driven algorithmic trading bot for the Indian Equity Markets (NSE). Features automated execution pipeline and risk-management kill switches.

Status:Private Beta - Architecting for NSE markets.

Capabilities.

01

Systems Architecture

I rewrite slow Python/Node.js bottlenecks in Rust/C++. Expect 10x throughput improvements and lower cloud bills.

Deliverables
  • +Performance profiling
  • +Rust/C++ rewrites
  • +Memory optimization
  • +Throughput benchmarks
02

Security Instrumentation

I audit CI/CD pipelines and inject automated security scanners (SAST/DAST) to prevent vulnerability shipping.

Deliverables
  • +CI/CD security audit
  • +SAST/DAST integration
  • +Secret scanning setup
  • +Hardening playbook
03

MVP Development

From database schema to deployed SaaS. I build the full stack—secure by design, fast by default.

Deliverables
  • +Full-stack implementation
  • +Database architecture
  • +Deployment pipeline
  • +Security-first design
