Majd Latah
I received my PhD from the Department of Computer Science at Ozyegin University under the supervision of Dr. Kubra Kalkan, where we explored blockchain-based authentication and authorization approaches for Software-Defined Networks (SDNs). I also contributed to the RESISTANT project at the University of Hamburg. Currently, I collaborate with Dr. Kalkan on topics in computer networks and security, such as post-quantum cryptography for SDNs (see OVS Meets PQ-TLS) and AI for computer networks (see AgenticNet).
