I am an Offensive Security Researcher at Intel.
My research interests include:
- Automated security validation of hardware designs, embedded firmware and software,
- Security and privacy aspects of test and debug features,
- Supply chain security,
- Hardware and firmware security aspects of 5G Base Transceiver Stations (BTS),
- Bluetooth and Wi-Fi security,
- Trusted, Trustworthy and Confidential Computing,
- Hardware-based security primitives including Physically Unclonable Functions (PUFs) and their applications.
Before I joined Intel, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the System Security Lab and Intel Collaborative Research Institute for Secure Computing (ICRI-SC) at Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany. There, my research focused on design, development, formal modeling and security analysis of hardware-based security primitives, security architectures and cryptographic protocols to verify the identity (i.e., authentication) and software integrity (i.e., attestation) of embedded systems.
