I am a PhD student at Hasso-Plattner-Institut (HPI). I am working in Internet Technologies and Systems of Prof. Dr. Christoph Meinel's Group. My research interest is networks security in general. Now, I am working on IPv6 security. In particular: the security of IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP), StateLess Address Auto-Configuration (SLAAC), Cryptographically Generated Addresses (CGA), and SEcure Neighbor Discovery (SEND).
