Bio

I am an Assistant Professor of Computer Science. My research brings a large-scale, empirical approach to the study of Internet security, trust, and safety. I build systems to measure complex networked ecosystems, and I use the resulting perspective to understand real-world behavior, uncover weaknesses and attacks, architect and deploy more resilient approaches, and guide public policy.
