Seminar Information

Time & Date: 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM on  August 29 (Thursday), Beijing Time

Venue: Room 209, Teaching D

Speaker: Dr. Chongyan GU, Queen's University Belfast

Host: Prof. Yue ZHENG, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen

Abstract: 

CISCO reported that the number of connected devices in the world will be between 25 billion and 125 billion by 2030. However, as devices are connected to the Internet, this opens up a range of new attack vectors for malicious adversaries and hackers. Current cryptographic methods used to secure computers connected to the Internet won’t easily scale to the volume of the IoT, due to the fact that low cost IoT devices often don’t have the computational power required for complex cryptographic computations. Additionally, counterfeit devices are an increasing problem as more and more devices are connected online. To tackle this, various hardware security primitives have widely investigated and developed. In this talk, the most recent CSIT's hardware security research will be presented. Specifically, the low-cost physical unclonable function (PUF) technology, hardware Trojan detection techniques, machine learning attacks, etc. will be introduced.

Biography

Dr. Chongyan Gu received the Ph.D. degree from Queen's University Belfast, Belfast, U.K., in 2016. She is currently a Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) in the School of EEECS at Queen's University Belfast. She has been awarded the EPSRC New Investigator Award in 2022. Her research into physical unclonable function (PUF) has been utilised as part of a security architecture for electronic vehicle (EV) charging systems, licensed by LG-CNS, South Korea. Her team was the overall winner of INVENT 2015, a competition to accelerate the commercialisation of innovative ideas. She currently serves as an Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Emerging Technologies in Computing (TETC) and Guest Editor of IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems – I (TCAS-I). She serves on the Organising Committee of AsianHOST 2024 and Technical Programme Committees of the ISCAS, ASP-DAC, and AsianHOST conferences. She also served on the workshop and tutorial chair of the 32nd FPL 2022 conference. Her co-authored pioneering research paper (invited) in the research topic of hardware security and approximate computing was published by Proceedings of the IEEE (impact factor: 10.694). She was invited to give keynote/tutorial talks to international conferences, such as, HiPEAC 2023 and IEEE ASP-DAC 2020. Her current research interests include PUFs, security in/for approximate computing, true random number generator (TRNGs), hardware Trojan detection and machine learning attacks. She is an IEEE Senior member.
