🙋‍♂️ More About Me

I’m a CS PhD student at New Jersey Institute of Technology. My research interest is Computer Security. I’m very much passionate about writing codes, learning, and building new things. I love to solve complex problems, take challenges & enjoy getting the job done. Always curious to learn.

In addition to academic activities, I love to take part in sports. I have been an active participant in various types of games and sports from a young age. Besides, I had some experience in public speaking and also had the opportunity to lead some teams in mentionable debate competitions.

🔬 Undergraduate Thesis

Title: Security Analysis of Software-Based Cryptocurrency Wallets.
Short Description: The goal of this thesis is to find the security vulnerabilities of cryptocurrency wallets as well as to get an overall idea about the privacy and permissions they ask from their users. Our methods focus on using vulnerability assessment tools and user reviews to identify the factors that contribute to their perceived security and usability. Both manual and Machine Learning approaches were taken to analyze the user reviews to determine how well they can keep cryptos safe and accessible. This work is in the process of publishing. I was fortunate to work with Dr. Jabed Morshed Chowdhury and Dr. Sadek Ferdous Ripul as my thesis supervisors. This work is soon to be submitted to the journal Cybersecurity published by SpringerOpen.
