Short Biography

I am a PhD student of Tsinghua University, advised by Dan Pei. I am interested in WiFi performance measurement and security. My research now focuses on the vulnerabilities of the public and residential wireless networks. I am in charge of the SafeAP project, which is trying to study the vulnerabilities of the public APs and present a simple method to rank the vulnerabilities of different APs based on public knowledge base (CVE/NVD and so on). We also developed a simple demo App (called Savy) for Android smartphones to test the WiFi APs they are using.
