Academic Background and Biography

I obtained my Doctoral (Ph.D.) and Masters (M.S.) degree in Computer Science from the Computer Science and Engineering Department at the University at Buffalo, State University of New York in September 2008 and June 2004, respectively. Prior to that, I received a Bachelors degree (B.E.) in Computer Engineering from Fr. Conceicao Rodrigues College of Engineering, Mumbai University in June 2000. I was a Senior Researcher with the Laboratory for computer Communications and Applications (LCA1) at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) in Lausanne, Switzerland from September 2008 until December 2011. I also worked as a Technical Leader at the Investment Research and Information Services Ltd., Mumbai, India from June 2000 to June 2002.

I direct the SPriTE (Security, Privacy, Trust and Ethics in Computing) Research Lab in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science department at the Wichita State University. My current research is focussed on overcoming security threats and privacy challenges in wireless network systems such as wireless LANs, wireless mobile ad-hoc and sensor networks and wireless cellular networks. In the past, I have worked on topics including secure localization and time synchronization protocols for wireless networks, vulnerability analysis and adversary modelling, application of graph-theory and combinatorial optimization concepts to overcoming security problems and game theory and economic mechanism design. I am a member of the IEEE and the ACM.
