Ozgur Sinanoglu

Ozgur Sinanoglu is a professor of electrical and computer engineering at New York University Abu Dhabi. He earned his B.S. degrees in Electrical and Electronics Engineering and Computer Engineering from Bogazici University, Turkey in 1999. He obtained his MS and PhD in Computer Science and Engineering from the University of California San Diego in 2001 and 2004, respectively. He has industry experience at Texas Instruments, IBM, and Qualcomm and has been with NYU Abu Dhabi since 2010. His research interests include design-for-test, design-for-security, and design-for-trust for VLSI circuits. He is the director of the Center for Cybersecurity and the Design-for-Excellence Lab at NYU Abu Dhabi. His recent research in hardware security and trust is funded by the US National Science Foundation, US Department of Defense, Semiconductor Research Corporation, Intel Corp, and Mubadala Technology.

Ozgur Sinanoglu is a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at New York University Abu Dhabi, specializing in Hardware Security. His research focuses on securing integrated circuits against various attacks, including logic locking, camouflaging, and fault analysis. He has published extensively on techniques such as SAT attack-resistant logic locking, anti-SAT mechanisms, and secure IC design. His work addresses vulnerabilities in logic obfuscation, removal attacks, and the development of design-for-trust methodologies. Sinanoglu's contributions emphasize the importance of provably secure hardware design and the use of machine learning in reverse engineering gate-level netlists.
