Praseetha
Personally a Dreamer, Reader, Lover of all things artful, Live in stories and feel in colors.
When not dreaming, I spend an immense amount of time thinking what goes under the memory hierarchies in computers. I break things so that others cant break into your system and steal your secrets :)

Research
I am a researcher specializing in computer architecture and system security, focusing on the design of secure and efficient memory systems. My work explores the intersection of performance and security, addressing solutions for micro-architectural attacks like RowHammer. I am passionate about developing practical and scalable defense mechanisms against micro-architectural attacks that align with real-world hardware constraints. My broader interests include micro-architecture, memory systems, and secure computing.
