I have been an Assistant Professor of School of Software at Kwangwoon University since March 2022. Before joining here, I obtained my Ph.D. in School of Electrical Engineering and a master's degree in Graduate School of Information Security from KAIST (Advisor: Prof. Seungwon Shin). I received my B.S. from Chungnam National University. My research interests broadly include cloud computing and network systems security.
