I work broadly in the area of systems security with particular emphases on platform security and the security/privacy implications of systems based on machine learning.
At Aalto University I co-founded the Secure Systems research group with Tuomas Aura and continue to be part of it as an adjunct professor. You can read more about me on my personal website.
