I am a PhD student at the Department of Computer Science and an IGERT fellow at the University of Illinois at Chicago. I have a BS in Computer Science from UIC.
Research Interests
I am interested in
studying security problems in complex computer systems and pursuing new methods
for detecting and preventing security threats. My current research work entails
creating techniques for automatically detecting vulnerabilities in web
application through source code analysis.
