Ariel Hamlin
Education
- BS in Computer Science and Civil Engineering, Tufts University
Biography
Ariel is a doctoral student at Northeastern University’s Khoury College of Computer Sciences, advised by Daniel Wichs. Ariel’s research focuses on cryptography, and she is a member of the Algorithms & Theory Group. She is interested in examining the intersection of secure search protocols and the impacts that leakage has on their security. Ariel would like to provide a framework to evaluate the trade off between security and leakage and develop solutions along different points of that curve–pushing the boundary of efficiently hiding access patterns in secure database systems.
Before coming to Northeastern, Ariel worked at the MIT Lincoln Lab where she focused on the application of cryptography for secure databases. The Burlington, Vermont native is a graduate of Tufts University, where she received her undergraduate degree in computer science and civil engineering. Going forward, Ariel would like to apply her research to provide tangible, usable security systems to help mitigate some of the security threats faced by users in these situations.
