Week 9 of My 90-Day Challenge: Last-Minute Prep and New Burp Features

Hey everyone!

Welcome to the Week 9 update. This week was pretty hectic with a lot of appointments, so my bug bounty work unfortunately took a backseat. Despite the busy schedule, I still managed to squeeze in some focused preparation for my certification goals and explored a new tool feature.

Integrating AI in Burp Suite Repeater

I’m currently spending time learning how to better integrate and use the AI Agent in Burp Suite’s Repeater. As the industry evolves, leveraging AI tools can save time and highlight potential areas for investigation. I’m excited to see how this feature can streamline my workflow, especially when I get back into full-scale hunting.

Certification Crunch Time

My focus this week was heavily split between two major exams:

1. BSCP: I’m doing the final touch-ups before taking the BSCP exam. As I mentioned last week, I’m committed to tackling this within the next three weeks, seeing it as a valuable learning experience regardless of the initial outcome.
2. CISSP: I’m also preparing intensively for the CISSP exam, which I’ve scheduled for Q1 2026. This comprehensive exam requires consistent study, and I’m ensuring I stay on track to meet that goal.

Status Update: Still Hunting

I haven’t been able to make significant progress on the potential Information Disclosure finding from Week 8 due to my schedule, but the lead is still active. I’m eager to dive back into the hunt next week and apply my refined knowledge.

The 90-day challenge clock is ticking, and I’m pushing hard to make these final weeks count!

See you soon,
