Hi 👋 I'm Akshith

I'm a security researcher and software engineer. I'm enthusiastic about making software and systems more secure. I strive to be a worthy systems programmer, and more importantly i'm working towards building in public.

As a PhD student in Computer Science at Oregon State University, advised by Dr. Rakesh Bobba and Dr. Yeongjin Jang i've worked on software debloating techniques as a means to reduce the attack surface.

I've also had the opportunity to contribute to reverse engineering at PARC and to the security of open source software at SRI International.

I enjoy solving CTF challenges with OSUSEC.
