Alexandros

Kapravelos

Associate Professor
NC State University

akaprav@ncsu.edu

I'm an Associate Professor in the Department of Computer Science at North Carolina State University, a member of the Wolfpack Security and Privacy Research (WSPR) Lab and the faculty mentor of HackPack. Together with The Order of the Overflow team we organized DEF CON CTF during 2018-2021.

I'm looking for excited and motivated students to work with. PhD applications at NCSU are due in December (link). If you are interested to visit our group for an internship, take a look here.

Research Interests

My research interests span the areas of systems and software security. I am in particular interested in protecting the browser at all levels, from designing a secure browser architecture to measuring and understanding large-scale Internet attacks. Understanding how the web works and evolves over time and how we can make it more secure for the users is my current research focus.
