TLDR: My research focuses on building context-aware solutions which provide end-users with usable, secure solutions that resonate with evolving technological, security trends.
I also work with the High Performance Computing Research Group at A&M-SA.
*Note: A&M-SA Students who are interested in working with me, please send me an email with your CV.
My research lies at the intersection of these key fields of CSE, focused on the end-user.
My research: The rapid adoption of smart systems (IoT, Mobile, Embedded Computing Systems), especially in the current era of AI, has resulted in the boundaries between users and systems becoming increasingly blurred, giving rise to complex and nuanced attack surfaces/vectors. Thus, my research efforts are focused on understanding the unique contextual paradigm between users-systems to effectively mitigate security vulnerabilities (across all layers, emphasis on Physical Layer). This lies at the intersection of the distinct fields of Cyber Security, Mobile Computing and Human-Computer Systems in Computer Science. Representative conference venues include ACM CCS, ACSAC, Ubicomp, Mobicom.
Keywords: Side-Channel Analysis, Device Authentication, Mobile Computing & Sensing, Interaction Paradigm, Ubiquitous computing and tools.
