Dr. Xiaohan Zhang
I am a Pre-tenure Associate Professor of Fudan University, where I obtained my B.Eng and Ph.D under the supervision of Prof. Min Yang.
I currently work at the System Software & Secure Lab.
My research mainly focues on cybersecurity, including mobile application security, malware detection and applied AI security.
I received a Distinguished Paper Award Nomination at ACM CCS 2020 (4/121) and a Distinguished Paper Award at USENIX Security 2022.
I have found hundreds of high-risk vulnerabilities, and one was awarded the
2021 Most Valuable Vulnerability by Chinese National Vulnerability Database (CNVD).
I'm currently looking for students who are interested in cybersecurity. Please contact me through:
