I am currently pursuing my Ph.D. degree in the Department of Computing at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, under the supervision of Prof. Bin Xiao. Previously, I served as a Research Assistant in the School of Computer Science and Engineering at University of New South Wales with Prof. Jingling Xue. I received the B.S. degree in Computer Science and Technology from Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine, advised by Prof. Youwei Ding, and the M.S. degree in Computer Science and Technology from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, advised by Prof. Liang Liu and Prof. Lisong Wang. My current research interests include AI Agent Security, Cybersecurity, and Wireless Sensor Networks.
Acknowledgments: My path to a Ph.D. has been one of overcoming economic hardship, as my family relied on China’s National Minimum Living Allowance Program from 2005 to 2020. This journey would have been impossible without the unwavering efforts and profound sacrifices of my parents, Mr. Jianping Zhai and Ms. Jianying Wang. I hold the deepest gratitude and respect for them, as they are the cornerstone of all my achievements.
