I spent my first year PhD
summer internship (Jul '08 - Aug '08) at the SAP GIS Application Security

I spent my junior summer as visiting student
at the Embedded Systems Lab, Dept. of Electrical Engineering,
Indian Institute of
Technology Delhi working in the area of Embedded Systems and Computer
Networks
with

I spent my sophomore summer in
my room playing
Mitch Maddox. That's when I broke into
MTNL, my local ISP and formally entered the world of network security
research.
I spent my freshman summer
