Teaching & Research

Teaching

Hassan currently is the Cisco Network Academy Manager in University of Gloucestershire and supervise the Cisco Lab for students in all levels. He teaches a broad range of subjects including networking and advance networking topics.

Research

Hassan’s latest work is to use body physiological signals to extract randomness from the body. The first part of this research has been publishes in IEEE Transaction on Dependable and Secure Computing. This research also secured two InnovativeUK fund and currently in collaboration with Crossword company, Hassan is exploring the possibility of converting the research to the product.
