What is your research about?
My research revolves around the security and privacy analysis of Internet of Things (IoT) based networking protocols, namely Zigbee and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). I’m exploring what sort of sensitive information is leaked when these devices communicate and how these privacy leakages can be prevented.
