Biography

  • I am currently a Full Professor in the school of Cyber Science and Engineering of Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST), where I lead the ARTS3 research group (in short for Advanced Research for Trustworthy and Secure Software Systems). I obtained my PhD degree from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), and my bachelor degree from Zhejiang University. During my PhD studies, I was honored and fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Shing-Chi CHEUNG in the CASTLE group. I also had an unforgettable visiting experience at UC, Davis under the supervision of Prof. Zhendong Su. My research interests mainly focus on LLM/Agents Security, Software/System Security, and LLM/Agents for Software Systems.
