Research

My research focuses on Internet-scale measurement of security and privacy aspects, with occasional deep-dives into Internet measurement methodology. I deeply care about reproducible research and sound Internet measurements. My thoughts on the latter are summarized here. As an evolved best practice, I run websites with continued measurements for two of my papers:

Research I contributed to has been awarded the Best Paper Award at TMA'17, IEEE ComSoc ITC Best Paper of 2017 Award, Best Dataset Award at TMA'17, Community Contribution Award at IMC'17, IRTF Applied Networking Research Prize (ANRP) 2018, Community Contribution Award at IMC'18, and Best Dataset Award at PAM'19.
