Möt en forskare - Sousveillance: monitoring app behaviour

Sousveillance: monitoring app behaviour

What is the most intimate thing that you possess? If the answer is your mobile phone, you'd probably be interested in finding out how apps behave. In one end, we have a powerful device capable of collecting, monitoring, processing, transmitting data and in other end, this device is connected to several hundreds of different entities through apps. We investigate about what happens once you grant access to your data by pressing 'Allow' or 'Accept'.
 

The work of Nurul Nomen, PhD student in Computer science, is in the realm of security and privacy aspects of mobile operating systems. The research focuses on the data processing practices of apps and it's probable consequences on privacy of an individual.
