I am a faculty member in the Cryptography,
Security, and Privacy (CrySP) group
and in the Centre for Applied
Cryptographic Research (CACR), an affiliate faculty member in
the Network and DIstributed
Systems group, and an affiliate member of the Institute for Quantum Computing.
My main research interests are in the areas of security and privacy, and
specifically in creating useful security and
privacy technologies to protect Internet transactions.
Some of my current and planned research:
My publications
I am currently seeking interested graduate students and postdoctoral
researchers, to start in
September 2013
or later. See the
CrySP website if you are interested. Note: Please do not
email me directly regarding applications. I get too many of these
messages, and I am unable to respond to them.
