I am a 4th Year Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at University of California, Davis. I am advised by Professor Zubair Shafiq.
Broadly, my research interests include Web Privacy, Security and Transparency. My work aims to uncover hidden risks emerging from non-transparent data practices on the web to make it more secure and private. At a high level, I build novel data-driven black-box audit systems to reverse-engineer opaque data and monetary flows on the Internet. More specifically, my research methods involve leveraging large-scale persona-centric internet measurement techniques by web browser instrumentation, conducting rigorous measurements of security and privacy abuses, and using insights from the measurement studies to improve the dynamics of web.
