I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Stevens Institute of Technology. I obtained my PhD in Computer Science from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam on February 2010 and then moved to work as a postdoctoral researcher at Columbia University. I also hold an MSc and BSc in Computer Science from Leiden University and University of Crete, respectively.
My research interests are mainly around the area of software systems and security. Specifically, in the past I have worked on systems software security and hardening, honeypots, taint analysis (information-flow tracking), binary analysis and reverse engineering, run-time and compile-time software instrumentation, control-flow integrity, code-reuse attacks, Tor, and user authentication. For more information check out my CV and my Google Scholar Profile.
If you are a strong C programmer and always curious to learn how things work under the hood, I'm always looking for students to join my group. Prospective PhD students can email me and submit an application to Stevens. Stevens is at an amazing location and it is a great place to do impactful research. Opportunities for MS and undergraduate students are also available. More info under openings.
