Brief Biography

Dina Mahmoud is an assistant professor at The American University in Cairo's (AUC) Department of Computer Science and Engineering. In 2024, she received her PhD in computer and communication sciences from EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland. She was the first recipient of the Cyber-Defence (CYD) Campus Doctoral Fellowship and a recipient of the Google Generation Scholarship in 2022. She received the BSc degree in electronics and communications engineering, with a minor in mathematics from The American University in Cairo in 2019. Her research interests include the hardware security of FPGA-CPU heterogeneous systems and the design of secure and reliable computing systems. Her work has focused on the possibility of electrical-level fault injection in systems incorporating field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and considering the potential multitenancy consistent with cloud computing paradigms. Dina serves on the technical program committee of the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society (IES) International Conference on Emerging Technologies and Factory Automation (ETFA).
