I have been involved in high level research since 1997, the year I started working as a software engineer for National Institute of Electronics and Information Technology. Then, I carried out research in computer networking and software engineering, which are fundamental areas of Computer Science. My research interests are now wide ranging and include cybersecurity, data security and privacy, blockchain, cryptocurrency, data mining, distributed networking, software engineering, Internet of Things (IoT), incidence response, digital forensics, cloud computing, etc. As an active researcher, I have developed a solid core of research skills and the ability to apply these skills to turn ideas into scientific contributions. Please visit my google scholar page. I have also developed an ability to manage undergraduate research students, and to train them in the research process, as they have little or no knowledge of the research process. 

I'm looking for self motivated graduate and undergraduate students with a good background in Mathematics, Computer Science, Computer Engineering or Data Science to work together on problems such as  Cyber security, Internet of Things (IoT), Blockchain, Digital Forensics, Cloud Security, Ad-hoc  sensor networks, Distributed computing, Vehicular Networks and Autonomous Vehicles.
