My name is Kripa Shanker, and I am a Ph.D. student at Department of Computer Science and Automation, Indian Institute of Science (IISc). I am supervised Prof. Vinod Ganapathy who leads Computer Systems Security Lab. I am broadly interested in cloud security. Recently I looked at how we can run application securely on the cloud using trusted hardware like Intel SGX. Currently, I am working on Function-as-a-Service (FaaS).

Before coming to IISc, I did my under graduation at Institute of Engineering and Rural Technology, Prayagraj (Allahabad) Uttar Pradesh. I spend 12 years of my wonderful schooling days at B.S.F. School Jammu. I was born in Allahabad, which is recently renamed to Prayagraj.
