Personal profile
Biography
I am a Senior 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. My research has been supported by Australian Research Council, CSIRO Data61, and Oceania Cyber Security Centre.
I am currently the deputy course director for Master of Cybersecurity at Monash FIT.
