My research interests are in hardware security related topics, a field that gained enormous traction over the past two decades. I work on challenges in cryptographic engineering, and on making systems secure and tamper resistant. My students have built numerous demonstrators which has driven my research in attacks and countermeasures against faults and side-channel analysis. In addition to research in tamper-resistant design, I also work on the conception, design and implementation of efficient realizations of secure hardware and software.
I love teaching, too! I like to ponder how to explain complex topics clearly. I wrote a text book on a topic called "Practical Introduction to Hardware/Software Codesign". Recently, I also taught courses on Digital Signal Processing and ASIC Design. Computer engineering is an exciting topic with numerous challenges and, at the same time, big rewards. Students face an ever increasing stack of technologies to conquer, from transistors to software. I am excited about the project-based learning at WPI and I am honored to work with the undergraduate and graduate students on these challenging research problems.
