What are your research interests?
I had two main projects to date. One was a system for hardening JavaScript-based web applications against client-side validation attacks. The second project was a long-term study to determine challenges in Content Security Policy deployments that can prevent wide adoption.
What’s one problem you’d like to solve with your research/work?
My primary interest is hardening client-side applications in the presence of vulnerabilities.
What are your research or career goals, going forward?
Making the web a more secure platform.
