Staff Profile

I am guest member at Newcastle University and an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at Durham since September 2024. Prior to that, I was a Reader in the School of Computing at Newcastle, which I joined the School in 2013, as a Senior Research Associate. I was also the creator and Director of the SAgE Digital Skills Lab, Head of the SRS Group and a member of Senate.

• I've been involved with many modules for teaching Cyber Security in the School of Computing. I have notably led the CSC3632 System and Network Security.

I am generally interested in security and privacy, please visit my own webpage for further details.
