Hello, I am a Computer Science Ph.D. candidate at the University of Southern California (USC). Currently, I am working as a graduate student researcher at USC-Information Sciences Institute (USC/ISI) under the supervision of Prof. John Heidemann. I did my MSc and BSc from Bangldesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET) where I was advised by Prof. A.B.M Alim Al Islam Razi and Prof. Md. Yusuf Sarwar Uddin.
My research interest includes Networking, Security and Internet Measurement. I am currently working on anycast and DDoS attack mitigation techniques in DNS architecture at USC/ISI. Previously, I worked for Veriflow Systems, where I used to make network topology, worked with different networking devices from various vendors, configured those devices, and analyzed their networking behavior.
I love to run and play soccer and cricket!
