Research Interests

My research interests primarily include the security and privacy for users interacting with their devices, with emphasis on voice interfaces, privacy policies, malware detection, data privacy, and wireless security and privacy. My overall research objective is to bring effective, practical, and usable security and privacy protection to the masses especially in the emerging computing paradigm of the Internet of Things.
