Research
I investigate security problems in real-time embedded systems
and apply solutions across the hardware-software interface.
My research has been supported by
federal grants from the
National Science Foundation,
Department of Homeland Security,
National Security Agency, and
Office of Naval Research, and
by industry gifts from
Northrop Grumman, Texas Instruments, Leidos, and Xilinx.
