Note

I am prepared to begin graduate research at the Master’s or Ph.D. level immediately after my graduation in the summer of next year. If my research interests align with yours and you believe I may be a suitable candidate, please feel free to contact me using the information provided above.

After reading this blog by Prof. Andreas Zeller, I am especially excited about pursuing graduate study in Germany 🇩🇪.

PROFILE

Duc Dat Dau is a senior undergraduate student in Cyber Security at Thuyloi University, Vietnam.

His research interests focus on automated software vulnerability discovery, particularly fuzzing-based approaches for uncovering security flaws. He has a strong background in reverse engineering and binary exploitation, with an emphasis on analyzing and manipulating low-level program behavior. Beyond software, he is also interested in hardware-assisted security, with a specific focus on the security of Internet of Things (IoT) devices.
