Bio:
I joined the Computer Science department, Faculty of Science and Engineering at University of Groningen as a Postdoctoral Fellow in July 2019. In May 1, 2022 I started a new position with the CS department as an Assistant Professor. Prior to joining RUG, I was working at the University of Michigan-Flint as an Assistant Professor of Computer Science between July 2016 and June 2019.Prior to that, I had been in the College of Computing and Informatics at University of North Carolina at Charlotte for my Ph.D. My Ph.D. advisor was Mohamed Shehab . Before joining UNC Charlotte, I had been in the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences at University of Colorado at Colorado Springs and King Abdullah II School of Information Technology at University of Jordan for my Master and Bachelor degree, respectively.My research interests lie in the field of cyber security, particularly in web, computer and mobile phones security. My research investigates the security and privacy risks of third-party applications in computing system by analyzing the access control mechanisms, finding possible vulnerabilities, implementing countermeasures, and studying users’ awareness and comprehension to the vulnerabilities and the countermeasures. Over the last year and a half I have been working on projects that involve using data and text mining techniques to detect Android malicious apps and recommend safe apps for mobile users to download on their phones.

Research Projects:
Countering Intrusive and Low Quality Apps
Profiling and Detecting Malware Samples
Moving Target Defense
