I enjoy working on various cyber-security topics. I’ve done offensive and defensive research on web applications, network protocols and devices, embedded systems, radio-frequency control systems, industrial robots, cars, and mobile devices.
I work with Huawei’s AI4Sec Research Team, which is focused on detection of sophisticated threats via graphs analysis, clustering of user’s behaviors for detecting anomalies, ML-based malware analysis and detection, and automatic cyber-threat intelligence extraction.
After more than 10 years, I concluded that I’m still around in the infosec area because it gives me so many opportunities to solve new exciting problems every day.

How do we secure a smart manufacturing system, or a smart factory? Recent incidents such as the ransomware infection that halted production at a major semiconductor foundry in 2018 have already shown the impact of IT-to-OT lateral movement. Moreover, while smart manufacturing systems are isolated from other networks, there is a trend toward less isolation between IT and OT systems.
