About
I’m an assistant professor in SDSU, where I am also a member of the Cybersecurity Center. My current research interests encompass security and privacy concerns within software supply chains, mobile systems, and Internet of Things (IoT) systems. I am committed to identifying novel attack vectors and emerging privacy issues in these domains. My methodology involves the application of reverse engineering, static and dynamic analysis, and formal verification techniques to detect, measure, and mitigate newly identified security and privacy vulnerabilities
