Senior Lecturer in Information Security, Royal Holloway University of London
My work blends engineering and computer science principles, focusing on a whole system approach to identifying vulnerabilities and mapping the implications of specific incidents and attacks. The security of assistive and health-critical implants is an area of research of great interest to me. I have led work analysing ransomware, involving game theoretic analysis of ransomware targeting Critical National Infrastructure, statistical trends in stochastic attack models, and security analysis of potential future ransomware targeting proof of stake blockchain.
I also undertake a variety of development projects, including the development of novel random number generators and tests to validate them. I am also Technical Manager for Omnidrome, a Royal Holloway drone lab exploring the educational and scientific application of drones. I provide specific assistance regarding implementation of drones, and lead research regarding safety of autonomous systems and sensor injection/fault attacks.
