Biography

I am a Research Associate within the School of Computing Science, and a member of the GLAsgow Systems Section (GLASS). My research focuses on the cyber security and resiliance of Critical National Infrastructure (CNI), giving particular attention to cyber-physical systems (CPS) and industrial technologies (e.g. Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). Within the department, I am a member of the Netlab and Cyber Defence Lab groups.

I have recently completed my PhD at the University of Glasgow, which was funded through an EPSRC iCASE studentship award, supported by the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl) as the industrial partner. My PhD research explored anomaly detection and diagnosis for ICS, specifically in the context of digital forensics.
