Jai Sachin Baskar
Research Assistant, IIT Gandhinagar | Usable Security Group
Bio
I am a researcher at the FUSS group (formal and usable systems security group), Indian Institute of Technology(IIT), Gandhinagar, supervised by Prof. Abhishek Bichhawat, working on HCI and usable security. My work investigates how people perceive, reason about, and act on the security and privacy properties of digital systems, and how design can support safer human decisions. Previously, I collaborated with researchers at IIIT Kottayam, University of Sydney, University of Queensland, and HEC Paris.
