Students Advising and Research

I am grateful for the chance to advise diverse undergraduate, graduate and PhD students from both internal and external settings. These research initiatives are centered around investigating the realms of Internet cybercrimes such as phishing, scams, illicit campaigns, and prevalent abuses in real-world scenarios. We often submit the research work to flagship conferences: IEEE S&P, USENIX Security, ACM CCS, and NDSS. Below, you'll find a list of both current and alumni students whom I've had the honor of advising in research projects.
