    • Research Interest

  • Leakage-resilient cryptography: It provides security against adversaries who have access to the implementation of cryptographic systems and have access to partially leaked secret states and/or local computations.
  • Password-based authentication mechanisms: Password protected systems require users to submit their username and password which are then compared against the stored credentials in the system's database. Due to the low entropy of password distribution, password based authentication systems are vulnerable to offline dictionary attacks. The goal is to design protocols which resist such attacks.
  • Privacy preserving machine learning: It employs techniques to allow multiple data sources to collaboratively train machine learning models without revealing private or sensitive data.
