This is a shared blog of Bhargava Shastry and Vincent Ulitzsch. Our joint work focuses on discovering vulnerabilities via fuzz-testing, which we blog about here.

Bhargava Shastry

I am a security engineer at the Ethereum Foundation in the Solidity team. In my spare time, I am a freelance security researcher.

I obtained my Ph.D. in computer science at the chair for Security in Telecommunications (SecT), TU Berlin in 2018. My dissertation is titled Compiler Assisted Vulnerability Assessment. I obtained an M.Sc. in computer science from EPFL and a B.Tech in electrical engineering from NITK.

I have developed software for Ittiam Systems, and conducted research on mobile systems security at the Fraunhofer SIT, and Rice University computer security lab.
