Security Research Reference Coverage

I’ve recently started getting more requests on participating or guiding to a certain extend, student theses and various other research papers. There's nothing more pleasant than exchanging points of view, don't preach, but teach and question everything is what I have in mind. So, I've decided to share some publications featuring some of my previous papers, and by the way, I'm very near to releasing two research papers on hot topics that emerged during 2006, so stay tuned!
