Assistant Professor
IT University of Copenhagen
My goal is to enable developers to write, at scale, trustworthy software that satisfies high-level security requirements.
My research is on language-based security. I build foundations for computer security by advancing and applying techniques and tools from programming-language theory and formal methods, such as program analysis and program transformation.
I am an Assistant Professor at the IT University of Copenhagen (ITU). I am a member of the Center for Information Security and Trust (CISAT) , as well as the Programming, Logic and Semantics (PLS) and Software Quality Research (SQUARE) groups.
I was a Postdoc at Max Planck Institute for Software Systems (MPI-SWS), hosted by Deepak Garg, and at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) CyLab, hosted by Limin Jia and Lujo Bauer. I did my PhD at Chalmers in the security lab, supervised by Andrei Sabelfeld.
My publications, in reverse-chronological order:
I serve on the program committees of the following events.
I regularly peer-review research papers for CCS, S&P, CSF, NDSS, USENIX Security, ESORICS, POST, NordSec, FCS, MMM-ACNS, TOPLAS, and JLAMP.
I appear in public media:
I create course material for SikkerCyber, a free online learning course on cybersecurity, aimed at employees in small- and medium-sized enterprises. (funded by Industriens Fond).
I teach at the IT University of Copenhagen. Demonstration: 1, 2.
I am appointed external examiner ("censor") for the Computer Science Censor Core ("Censorkorpset i Datalogi"), by the Danish Ministry for Education and Research ("Uddannelses- og Forskningsministeriet"). Here is my page.
I supervise student research- and thesis-projects.
I only supervise projects which I am highly enthusiastic about, and which will likely lead to a research paper. Are you a student interested in writing a project with me? Make sure my research agenda overlaps with your interest, then set up a meet.
