Research Summary

Currently a graduate student at UCI working with Ian G. Harris. My research interest is in using ML/PL to automate tasks in reverse engineering.

Reverse engineering is an arduous process. It is arduous because it can take days, months, or years to produce fruitful outcomes. I want to push the boundary of what can be automated when performing reverse engineering so a reverser can reach the fruitful outcomes before they gives up.

I am also interested in software protection or obfuscation since its aim is to slow down the reverse engineering process. To reliably automate tasks in reverse engineering, I believe obfuscation needs to be taken into account since obfuscated binaries are commonly found in the real world.
