About People Publications Teaching/Services Blog I’m an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville . I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Maryland, College Park in May 2020 where I worked with Prof. Tudor Dumitras .
My research interests include computer security (data-driven security and usable security), computer networks (Internet measurement) and the Web . I am interested in identifying the root causes of security threats by understanding actors (e.g., adversary and end-users) involved, with data-driven and human-centered perspectives (i.e., usability study).
I have been awarded NSA Best Scientific Cybersecurity Paper (2017) and the Ann G. Wylie Dissertation Fellowship (2019). My works about the Code-Signing PKI have been featured in Ars Technica, The Register, Schneier on Security, Threatpost, etc.
