Past Students

I am a PhD student in EET at UNSW and Data61|CSIRO, Australia. With my PhD advisor Mohamed Ali (Dali) Kaafar, I am working on evaluation and design of usable privacy and security systems for the Web and mobile platforms. The common theme of my work is to extract salient features via characterizations and measurements and to use specialized machine learning algorithms to improve security and privacy features, while maintaining adequate usability, of the privacy and security schemes on the web and mobile platforms. My research interests include:

• Tracking-free efficient Web browsing
• Evaluation of privacy preserving systems on the Web
• Analysis of security and privacy preserving systems in mobile platforms
• Spammer detection on online social networks
• Characterization of black-hat marketplaces

I am a PhD student in Electrical Engineering and Telecommunication (EE&T) at the University of New South Wales (UNSW), and Data61, CSIRO. Australia. I am working under the supervision of Mohamed Ali (Dali) Kaafar. My PhD research work focuses on the privacy of mobile and wearable devices (Internet of Things). The aim of my research project is to identify and combat privacy threats on mobile and wearable devices through the quantification and analysis of user behavioural biometrics. My research interests mainly includes:

• Online Privacy Threats and Privacy Preserving Technologies
• Behavioural Biometrics Authentication and User Behavioural Profiling
• Networks Measurement and Formal Modelling
• Cloud Computing Security
• Authorization
