He has been associating with the Barcelona Smart City Project and the Center for Cybersecurity Research of Catalunya (CYBERCAT) to trace contemporary cyber security issues in the field of the Internet of Things and wireless networks. In 2011, he earned his M.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering, specializing in Information Security, from the National Institute of Technology, Karnataka, Surathkal. His B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering was obtained in 2005 from Mahatma Gandhi University Kottayam.. He is  a Certified Network Security Specialist from the International Cybersecurity Institute, United Kingdom. Prior to his full-time doctoral research, he worked as an Assistant Professor (tenured track) in the Department of Computer Science at the Prince Sattam bin Abdulaziz University (PSAU), Riyadh, Saudi Arabia from 2012 to 2018. Before that, he was with the Faculty of Computer Science and Engineering at the Adi Shankara Institute of Engineering and Technology (ASIET) from 2006 to 2012. His research interests include cybersecurity and digital forensics, with a special focus on the security of wireless networks in smart homes and smart cities, the Internet of Things(IoT), and cyber-physical systems(CPS). He has taken part in several funded projects from the European Commission and other government enterprises. In terms of scientific production, he has authored several publications in Q1 journals and has also published numerous articles in international conferences. He also participates as a reviewer for several scientific journals (Elsevier Journal of Expert Systems with Applications, IEEE Journal of the Internet of Things) and has also served on the program committee of several conferences. He has served as a resource person for the last five editions of the COCON-Security and Hacking Conference organized by the Kerala Police Cyberdome.
