Bio
Currently, I am a Postdoctoral Researcher in Cyber Security at the Louisiana State University in the United Stated. I work on exciting topics at the intersection of cybersecurity and artificial intelligence. I am fortunate to tackle these topics under the guidance of the irreproducible and amazing Prof. Aisha Ali-Gombe.
​​​​
Before that, I pursued a Ph.D. in Computer Security which I have successfully defended in December 2021 at the
National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation (INRIA) and the University
of Rennes 1 in France.
​
My thesis consisted in developing techniques that rely on machine learning for effectively, efficiently,
and robustly detecting and classifying malware packers.
​
During my thesis, I worked under the supervision of Dr. Fabrizi Biondi, Dr. Olivier Zendra, Dr. Annelie Heuser,
Prof. Stéphane Ubéda, and Prof. Axel Legay.
​
Before the Ph.D., I got my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and my Master's degree in Computer
Security at the University of Science and Technology of Algiers (Algeria) – Houari Boumediene (USTHB).
​
My research interests lie at the intersection of Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence.
