+==== Usable security ====
+My research is about making security usable for IT professionals (developers, system administrators and such) that lack a specialized training in computer security. I focus on cryptographic interfaces (both programmable and command-line) of developer tools and software libraries. Currently, the emphasis is placed on X.509-capable libraries, such as OpenSSL, GnuTLS and NSS, paying special attention to the process of certificate creation and validation.

+==== Academic and industrial cooperation ====
-I feel deep meaning and responsibility in teaching and have been tutoring seminars and lecturing a few courses for more than 5 years.
+I'm a Ph.D. candidate supervised by Vashek Matyas.
-I have supervised several bachelor theses in the fields of functional programming, computer science education and usable security.
+My research efforts are supported by [[http://research.redhat.com/|Red Hat Czech]] and co-supervised by Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos.
+Furthermore, we cooperate with psychologists from [[http://irtis.fss.muni.cz/|IRTIS]].

+Before coming to usable security I was interested in randomness testing and helped develop the [[https://github.com/crocs-muni/eacirc|EACirc project]], the automatic problem solver based on circuit-like representation and genetic programming.
+It can be utilized as randomness testing tool similar to statistical batteries (NIST STS, Dieaharder, TestU01), for instance for analysis of cryptographic function outputs. It uses supervised learning techniques based on metaheuristics to construct adapted distinguisher of two input data streams. The distinguisher can be represented as hardware-like circuits or algebraic polynomial.

+~~CLEARFIX~~
+==== Teaching and supervision ====
+I see deep meaning and responsibility in teaching and have been tutoring seminars and lecturing a few courses for more than 5 years.
+I participate in some security courses ([[https://is.muni.cz/predmet/fi/PA193|Secure coding principles and practices]] and [[https://is.muni.cz/predmet/fi/PV181|Laboratory of security and applied cryptography]]). More importantly, I am much engaged in the local community of student teachers and leading the [[https://is.muni.cz/predmet/fi/DUCIT|Teaching Lab]] course.
+Finally, I am still very fond of functional programming (Haskell in particular) and have been teaching [[https://is.muni.cz/predmet/fi/IB015|Non-Imperative Programming]] and [[https://is.muni.cz/predmet/fi/IB016|Seminar on Functional Programming]] for quite some time.
+I have supervised multiple bachelor theses in the fields of computer security, functional programming and programming education.
