معرفی
Dr. Sana Ullah Jan is a Lecturer at the School of Computing Engineering and the Built Environment, Edinburgh Napier University. She is an active member of the Centre for Cybersecurity, IoT and Cyberphysical Systems, focusing on interdisciplinary research at the intersection of cybersecurity and emerging technologies. Her work emphasizes leveraging AI tools like LLMs for threat detection and enhancing IoT security.
Research interests include applying artificial intelligence to cybersecurity challenges, IoT security protocols, and ethical hacking methodologies. She has contributed to projects involving chaos-based encryption for IoT devices and developing frameworks for non-expert threat hunters.
Recent work, published in Machine Learning and Knowledge Extraction, explores using LLMs such as ChatGPT and Gemini to detect 'living off the land' cyber threats. This aligns with broader themes of AI-driven security solutions and smart city infrastructure protection.
As a supervisor, she has supported postgraduate research, including Shahbaz Khan's doctoral work on IoT encryption schemes. She maintains active collaborations within the university's cybersecurity hub and contributes to both academic and applied cybersecurity initiatives.
