I am Tran Viet Xuan Phuong, a tenure-track Assistant Professor of the Department of Computer Science at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock from Spring 2024.

Email: ptran@ualr.edu.

I am currently working on the topics of privacy-preserved data computation/data communication in IoT (secure lightweight computations), as well as functional encryption for protecting data in Machine/Federated Learning models. I am particularly interested in digging into the theories and applications of public-key cryptography.

I am looking for self-motivated students who have a passion for topics of applied cryptography/cybersecurity/AI security. Please send me your CV,  GRE to my email address.
