About Me
My name is Dr. Ben Nassi, a Jacobs Urban Tech Hub Fellow and a postdoctoral researcher at Cornell Tech, hosted by Tom Ristenpart and Michael Samuelian.
Before I attended Cornell Tech I did a Ph.D. at the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev (supervised by Yuval Elovici), investigating "Security and Privacy in the IoT Era".
I am a BlackHat board member and a frequent conference speaker at BlackHat, DEFCON, RSAC, HITB, SecTor, and CodeBlue.
Here is a YouTube playlist of my recent talks.
I received my M.Sc. degree from BGU's Department of Software and Information Systems Engineering. I received my B.Sc. degree from BGU's Department of Computer Science.
