Dr Siqi Ma

I am a senior lecturer at the UNSW Institute for Cyber Security (IFCYBER) in the School of Systems and Computing at the University of New South Wales (UNSW). Currently, I am also the postgraduate program coordinator of Cyber Security Operations at UNSW.

Before joining UNSW, I was a lecturer in the School of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering (ITEE) at the University of Queensland (UQ). I received my Ph.D. from Singapore Management University (SMU) in 2018 and became a postdoctoral research fellow in Data61, CSIRO. I visited Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in 2015.

My research interests include:

• Automated vulnerability detection and Repair
• Mobile security: Mobile apps analysis.
• IoT security: IoT firmware analysis, autonomous vehicle study
• Network security: Authentication & network protocol analysis

I am looking for self-motivated and PhDs. Our research projects require basic programming knowledge. You are not required to learn all the programming languages but to be familiar with at least one (e.g., C/C++, java). Please send me your resume and transcript if you are interested in software security.
