Research 

My research focuses on the derivation of machine-readable policy for computer and network security. We have applied a variety of machine learning and data mining techniques to derive network polices for intrusion detection. I have recently begun collaborating with Elisa Bertino and her students to extend the techniques to the monitor database system queries.
