I recently earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Georgia, specializing in cybersecurity with a focus on digital forensics, intrusion detection, and privacy-preserving techniques. I was advised by Prof. Kyu Hyung Lee and conducted research at the Institute for Cybersecurity and Privacy (ICSP).
My research focuses on closing the forensic evidence gap in intrusion detection: IDSs raise alerts at scale, but analysts still need runtime evidence to confirm or dismiss them. I built FACT and CLEAR to automatically collect and verify alert-relevant evidence for rule-based and ML-based detectors, and FA-SEAL to support forensic analysis on encrypted audit logs with selective disclosure. Separately, MAPSEC explores multi-agent automation for security investigation workflows.
Before the Ph.D., I worked as a Security Analytics Engineer at LogPoint(guardsix), where I built detection rules and analytics for production environments. I am now looking for Detection Engineering, Security Research, and Security Engineering roles where I can ship practical security systems with real impact.
