Hello there!! I'm Shihab Ahmed, a 1st year Ph.D. student in Information Technology at the Department of Computer & Information Sciences, Towson University. I am advised by Dr. Md Sajidul Islam Sajid. My research interests broadly cover System Security and Malware Analysis. My current research work particularly focused at the crossection of Cyber Deception and Generative AI. I received my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Information and Communication Technology from Comilla University in November, 2021 and November, 2022, respectively.

Shoot me an email if you want to collaborate on a project, have a question, or just want to say hi~
