Research Areas
Research Interests
My research interests focus on application-oriented quantum computing, particularly in quantum key distribution (QKD) and post-quantum cryptography (PQC). I am interested in the design, analysis, and implementation of secure communication protocols resilient to quantum and classical attacks. My work aims to bridge theory and practice by evaluating real-world deployment challenges, performance trade-offs, and integration with existing cryptographic infrastructures. I am especially motivated by research that enhances the security, scalability, and practicality of quantum-safe technologies for future communication networks.
