Research
My research interests are in computer networks and their security. Currently, I am interested in understanding how Internet fraudsters provision cybercrime infrastructures. The second focus of my research is on re-architecting the Internet so a safer, growth-friendly one can be designed. My publications can be found here.
In the past, my research focused on quality-consciousness issues in delivering large-scale content using technologies like peer-to-peer networks (for example, Gnutella and Kazaa) and IP multicast.
