Bio
I conduct research on cybersecurity with an emphasis on hardware-based security. The focus of my research is the development of secure systems that prevent cyberattacks targeting hardware vulnerabilities. To that end, my research interests cover applied cryptography, computer architecture, and digital hardware design. Specifically, I study post-quantum (PQ) cryptosystems, lightweight IoT encryption, physical unclonable functions (PUFs), secure computer architectures with side-channel defenses, and malware detection with machine learning. I am currently a post-doctoral researcher at The University of Texas at Austin, and I am hosted by Prof. Mohit Tiwari and Prof. Michael Orshansky.
I received my PhD degree from Virginia Tech, Secure Embedded Systems Labs led by Prof. Patrick Schaumont. Before my PhD, I was working as a digital design engineer at Vestek R&D Corp. I also hold MS in Electronics Engineering and BS in Microelectronics with Mathematics minor from Sabanci Univesity, Istanbul, Turkey.
