Our Research

We develop automated methods to design, attack, and harden electronic devices and computing systems — spanning side-channel analysis, hardware Trojan detection, cryptographic primitive design, and secure autonomous coordination. With 100+ publications and students as co-authors on nearly every paper, our research directly builds the workforce that industry and government need.

Our Projects

Our portfolio of projects — backed by agencies like NSF, NSA, and DOE and companies like AMD and Northrop Grumman — translates directly into tools, IP, and trained talent. Much of our work is open source; some remains embargoed when required by sponsors.

Undergraduate and graduate students work side-by-side on real deliverables across hardware security, side-channel analysis, swarm intelligence, and cryptographic design. Our alumni hold positions at AMD, Lockheed Martin, L3Harris, Collins Aerospace, BAE Systems, and more.
