Short Bio

I am a post-doctoral researcher at the department of computer science, Purdue University and a Fulbright Alumnus from Sri Lanka. I am also a member of CERIAS, IEEE and ACM. My main research interests are distributed systems security and applied cryptogrphy; the exciting world of securing loosely coupled systems and application of mathematics. My advisor is Prof. Elisa Bertino. The main objective of my research is to make the (online) world a better place to everyone in general.

My thesis work is on privacy preserving access control in data dissemination scenarios using group key management techniques. My thesis topic is "Privacy Preserving Access Control for Third-Party Data Management Systems". I have been working on computation over encrypted data as well.

I grew up in a small village in Galle, Sri Lanka [stats]. After attending a few schools, I finally settled at St. Aloysius College, Galle. I did my undergraduate degree at University of Moratuwa.
