Advancing the Security and Resilience of Cyber-Physical Systems and Agentic AI through Control Theory and Network Infrastructure

Research Vision: Secure and Resilient Autonomy for a Connected Future

My research stands at the intersection of Control Theory and Network Infrastructure, aiming to pioneer the security and resilience of next-generation Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Agentic AI.

Core Strategic Pillars:

• Architecting Composable Resilience: I develop frameworks where security and trustworthiness are modular, dynamic properties, enabling complex networked agentic systems to remain secure and resilient under harsh and adversarial conditions.
   

• Control-Theoretic Zero-Trust Security: My work integrates zero-trust architecture (ZTA) with rigorous control laws to ensure physical safety, even when individual network nodes, sensors, or actuators are compromised .
   

• Experimental Validation via Autonomous Testbeds: I bridge the gap between theory and practice by validating breakthroughs on high-fidelity testbeds featuring UAV/UGV swarms and VICON-integrated environments.

The mission of my research is to provide the fundamental scientific and engineering solutions necessary for building a trustworthy and autonomous global infrastructure.
