Lin Li

Lecturer

Currently, I’m a Lecturer (Cybersecurity) at Southern Cross University. Prior to this, I was a Research Fellow at the Enterprise AI and Data Analytics Hub, at RMIT University. I received my Ph.D. degree at Swinburne University of Technology- Information and Communication Technology (Cybersecurity), under the supervision of Prof. Jun Zhang, Prof. Yang Xiang. I got my MSc Degree at The University of Melbourne in 2020, under the supervision of Prof. Karin Verspoor. I also collaborate with A/Prof Lei pan, Dr. Chao Chen and Dr. Leo Yu Zhang closely. My research interest includes Biometrics, Software Vulnerability Detection, Large Language Model (LLM), Healthcare and AI.
