ABOUT MOUNIKA P.

As a PhD candidate at Western University, my work focuses on applied cryptography and privacy-preserving technologies, particularly in the secure handling of sensitive data such as genotype information. I specialize in developing cryptographic protocols for secure computations with applications in privacy-preserving machine learning (PPML), and private information retrieval (PIR).A key aspect of my research includes the development of a novel algorithm for secure function evaluation, advancing the state of secure computation techniques. I am deeply involved in ensuring data privacy through innovative solutions that enable the responsible use of sensitive data, while maintaining compliance with privacy standards in an increasingly data-driven world.With a strong foundation in homomorphic encryption, PPML, and Private Information Retrieval, my research bridges the gap between theoretical cryptography and real-world applications, ensuring that privacy remains at the forefront of technological advancement.
