Saurabh Amin

Saurabh Amin is the Edmund K. Turner Professor in Civil Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, affiliated with the Department of Civil Engineering. He serves as Co-Director of the Operations Research Center (ORC) and is a faculty member in the Laboratory of Information and Decision Systems. His research focuses on developing resilient infrastructure monitoring, control algorithms, and incentives to enhance decision-making under uncertainty. His work spans highway transportation, electric power distribution, and urban water networks, with an emphasis on cyber-physical interactions, vulnerability assessment, and incentive design for infrastructure systems.

Saurabh Amin is a researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, focusing on Control and Optimization, Applied Game Theory, Networks, and Infrastructure Resilience. His work explores the intersection of cyber security and physical systems, particularly in the context of control systems and infrastructure networks. Amin's research addresses vulnerabilities in cyber-physical systems, including attacks on process control systems, denial-of-service threats, and stealthy deception attacks on water SCADA systems. He also investigates secure networked control systems, game-theoretic models for electricity theft detection, and the physical and economic impacts of cyber attacks. His contributions emphasize the development of robust frameworks for securing critical infrastructure against evolving threats.
