Wireless technologies now support smart grids, IoT ecosystems, and critical infrastructure, but their broadcast nature and rapid commercialization introduce serious security risks, including eavesdropping, data manipulation, and large-scale disruptions. Weak standardization processes and poorly engineered devices further widen the attack surface, and traditional cryptography alone cannot meet the demands for scalability, interoperability, and low-latency security in modern wireless environments.
 
Mr. Ghose's research tackles these challenges at the intersection of security, privacy, usability, and efficiency, with a focus on establishing trustworthy communication in heterogeneous wireless networks. He investigates how to integrate security seamlessly without user burden, retrofit protections into existing systems, ensure interoperability at scale, and maintain strong guarantees even under ultra-low-latency constraints.
 
This talk presents novel approaches for building and sustaining trust in emerging wireless systems, with applications in Agricultural IoT, vehicular networks, and other next-generation wireless deployments.
