Personal profile
Biography
I am a Lecturer in the Department of Software Systems and Cybersecurity at the Faculty of Information Technology. I earned my PhD degree from City University of Hong Kong in 2016. Before that, I worked at Stromasys S.A., developing and optimising the dynamic instruction translation engine for virtual SPARC and ALPHA servers on the x86 platform.
My research focuses on designing innovative protocols, system prototypes (not legacy compatible) to solve the data privacy and security challenges in cloud and networked environments. Recently, I work to bridge the engineering gap in deploying searchable encryption protocols into practice, and build system prototypes based on hardware enclaves for a broad spectrum of applications that process large-scale data streams. I am also interested in cybersecurity assisted inter-disciplinary research with digital health, Internet of things, building information modelling, and machine learning.
My research has been supported by Australian Research Council, CSIRO Data61, Oceania Cyber Security Centre, Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and Monash Infrastructure.
