Palak Chopra

Hello, I am a PhD scholar at IIT Bombay’s CSE department, working under guidance of Prof. Devashish Gosain. My work focusses on analysis and measurements across web privacy and anonymity networks like Tor.

I have previously worked on autonomous security solutions, open-source SIEM tools and LLM application security, under the guidance of Prof. G. Sivakumar.

I let Dan Brown’s Digital Fortress influence me a bit too much as a kid (retrospectively it’s an alright book at best) and became interested in cybersecurity and privacy. I believe digital institutes need to be held more accountable for how they treat our data.

I am interested in studying the current state of privacy, specifically in India, and what kind of technologies help improve its posture.
