About

Assistant Professor in the School of Software at Soongsil University, Seoul, Korea.
My primary research interests lie in the field of systems security to discover and mitigate security concerns [3, 4, 5, 6]. I am, also, passionate about analyzing, finding and resolving security issues in a wide range of topics [1, 2, 7].
