I am a 1st/2nd/3rd 4th year Ph.D student in College of Information Sciences & Technology from The Pennsylvania State University. I am co-advised by Dr. Xinyu Xing and Dr. Peng Liu. I received my B.S in Computer Science & Technology from Nanjing University in 2017. I am awarded the 2020 IBM Ph.D Fellowship (1/24 globally).
My research interests include Operating system (OS) Security and Vulnerability Analysis. I am actively working on exploitability assessment, especially for vulnerabilities in infrastructure software systems (e.g., OS kernel and cryptography library).
