About Me

A second-year PhD Student in Computer Science at the Kahlert School of Computing of The University of Utah under the supervision of Dr. Stefan Nagy in his FuTURES³ Lab, I am interested in Systems and Software Security, specifically in exploring how AI, particularly Generative AI, can scientifically advance software security over automated software testing (fuzzing). My current research focuses on building a framework to amplify the correctness of compilers, decompilers, and transpilers by discovering bugs and their root causes. This work integrates both traditional and Generative AI methods to enhance the reliability and security of programming language processors. Besides, I play, plus create write-ups of, CTFs and Wargames regarding Linux Privilege Escalation, Binary Exploitation, and Web and Network Systems. An active open source software (OSS) project contributor, I engage in various projects where I apply my skills to enhance software functionalities and security. Check out my activities.

Before this, I served as a Lecturer from 2019 to 2023 at the Department of Computer Science, Southeast University, and am currently on a study leave. Long before that, I had earned my BSc Engg. degree in 2019 from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology (BUET).
