TI CyberSecurity Course
Best Cyber Security practices for Industrial Control System and Intelligent Transportation Systems
Here's who I am & what I do
I completed my undergraduate degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering with a focus on computer architecture and digital systems design. I pursued a master's degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering at University of Florida, where I delved deeper into the area of hardware security and design verification. My research interests lie at the intersection of cybersecurity, human computer interaction, computer architecture, Verification and ML
I've worked as a research assistant in the research lab FICS (Florida Institute of Cybersecurity), where I was involved in developing efficient cryptographic algorithms for ensuring the privacy and security of neural networks and crypto frameworks. I have also conducted research on side-channel attacks and countermeasures, where I explored various attack scenarios and proposed novel countermeasures.
In my free time I like painting, playing sports such as tennis, badminton, and volleyball, as well as taking photos to capture special moments and memories.
Online Certificates
SystemVerilog Accelerated Verification with UVM (Badge Exam)
Learning through UVM labs, UVM constructs, syntax, how to structure UVM code, how to write a good testbench.
Design for Test Fundamentals v2.0 (Online)
Learned different DFT methodologies.
SystemVerilog Assertions v4.2 (Badge Exam)
Loved the topic and the course, it was fun writing assertions and learning elegant ways to write assertions for different scenarios.
Cybersecurity Tools and Cyber Attacks
Gained an understanding of key cybersecurity concepts such as CIA Triad, Access Management, Incident Response, as well as key cybersecurity tools including firewall, anti-virus, cryptography, penetration testing and digital forensics.
Blockchain Basics
Learnt about Solidity and blockchain technology.
Smart Contracts
Design, code, deploy and execute a smart contract – the computational element of blockchain technology. Smart contracts allow for implementing user-defined operations of arbitrary complexity that are not possible through plain cryptocurrency protocols.
Data-driven Astronomy
Learnt SQL and how to visualize and organize huge data pertaining to astronomy and had fun learning more about the universe.
