About Me
I am a Computer Science and Engineering PhD
candidate at the University at Buffalo, The State University of New York
under the supervision of Prof. Ramalingam Sridhar. I have completed my
Masters from the same department and my Bachelors degree was from
Yamagata University, Japan.
Research Interest
My broad research interest is in the field of
Computer Systems & Network Security as well as Forensics. In my PhD
thesis, I develop a holistic approach of data security in embedded cloud
computing by securing the data throughout the life-cycle. Some of the recent problems that I
have studied in this
regard include:
-
Reconfigurable Encryption for Embedded Systems.
-
Remote Verification of Storage Integrity in Cloud.
-
Channel Independent Physical Layer Security in Wireless Networks.
- Smartphone
and Cloud Forensics.
-
Securing the Key Management and Routing in Wireless Ad hoc Network.
I have also worked closely with several
Socially
Relevant Computing projects. These projects aim to solve social
issues using the knowledge of Computer Science. Currently, I am a
Teaching Assistant of the corresponding courses, CSE542 and CSE453.
