I’m happy to share that I won the Best Research Presentation Award at the inaugural Texas Security Workshop (TSW) at The University of Texas at Dallas on September 26, 2026.
My talk, Towards Automated Behavioral Access-Control Rule Generation, presented an automated framework that turns execution provenance graphs into proactive access-control policies, with no hand-written rules needed.
Thank you to the organizers Imtiaz Karim and Kangkook Jee, steering chair Guofei Gu, and my session chair Blaine Hoak for a great first edition, and to everyone who came with sharp questions. I’m grateful to my advisor, Professor Marcus Botacin, and the lab for their support. See you next year in San Antonio!
