Laxmi Narayan Sahu
FOUNDER — TRACEXIS & SLYTHERIN EDUTECH PVT. LTD.
"Every case is a trail. Someone has to follow it."

Laxmi Narayan Sahu is a certified ethical hacker, penetration testing professional, digital forensic investigator and information systems auditor with 5+ years of active practice in network intelligence and cybercrime investigation.

He works on the cases that fall through the cracks between IT support and law enforcement — phishing and UPI fraud, hacked accounts, impersonation, stalking, corporate breaches. Everything leaves a digital trail. His job is to find it, preserve it, and present it in a form that can support a legal complaint, a civil claim or a corporate audit.

Alongside investigation, he has spent five years building Slytherin EduTech Pvt. Ltd. into one of India's most recognised grassroots cybersecurity education organisations — with Cyber Cell connections, student placements in DRDO and major MNCs, and an EC-Council partnership. TraceXis is the natural evolution of that work: the investigation and forensics arm, standing alongside the continuing Academy.

Our Journey

From a classroom to a forensics firm.

TraceXis is the investigation arm of an organisation with roots going back to 2020. Here's how it was built.

2020
The Slytherin Beginning

Operations began under the Slytherin brand — free cybersecurity awareness sessions in schools and colleges across Jharkhand and beyond. The goal: bridge the gap between cybersecurity as an abstract concept and cybersecurity as a practical skill anyone could learn. Community grew organically from that first batch.

2022
Slytherin EduTech Pvt. Ltd. — Formally Incorporated

Slytherin EduTech Pvt. Ltd. was formally incorporated in January 2022 as an IT security and training company. Rapidly earned MSME recognition from the Government of India, plus ISO, Udyam, MCA and GPIIT certifications — making it an officially recognised, government-approved training provider.

✓ MSME Approved — Gov. of India ✓ ISO & Udyam Certified
2022–25
EHCCI — National Cybersecurity Training at Scale

The Ethical Hacking & Cyber Crime Investigation (EHCCI) program ran multiple batches annually, drawing students from every Indian state and several international participants — over 24,000+ students trained across all cohorts. Key partnerships formed with multiple Cyber Cells and state police departments for direct internship pathways. Strategic EC-Council collaboration brought global certification alignment. Students secured DRDO internships and roles at HCL, TCS, Quick Heal, Z-Scaler and leading Cyber Security firms.

2026
TraceXis — The Investigation Initiative

TraceXis is launched as the dedicated digital forensics and private investigation arm. The same investigator, the same Cyber Cell relationships, the same certified methodology — now brought to bear on private case work for individuals and businesses. The Academy continues alongside. TraceXis is not a replacement for Slytherin EduTech; it's the investigation chapter that could only be opened after five years of building the training, the credibility and the network.
