Dr Faiza Medjek

I am a lecturer in Cyber Security at UWE. Prior to joining UWE. I was associate researcher at CERIST research Center fro over 18 years. I was member then head of the Cyber-Physical System security team. My doctoral dissertation addressed the security issues of the IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low-power and Lossy Networks (RPL) for IoT. In my research, I enhanced RPL with new intrusions detection and tolerance mechanisms that are based on Machine Learning and the RPL specification to immediately detect and/or respond to potential routing threats. I hold a Phd in cyber security. My dissertation addressed the security issues of the IoT IPv6 Routing Protocol for Low-power and Lossy Networks (RPL). In my research, I proposed sevral mechanisms to enhance RPL resilience and security. I am supervising and supporting undergraduate and postgraduate students and serving as reviewer for many journals. 

My research interest include IoT security, lightwight Machine Learning applications in cyber security, and Digital Twins for critical infrastructure security.
