Dr Nan Sun

Lecturer
UNSW Canberra
School of Systems & Computing

Dr Nan Sun received her PhD degree in Information Technology from Deakin University. She is currently a lecturer with the School of Engineering and Information Technology at the University of New South Wales, Canberra. Before joining UNSW, she was a Research Fellow in the Centre for Cyber Security Research and Innovation (CSRI) at Deakin University and worked on the project - Development of Australian Cyber Criteria Assessment (DACCA). Her research focuses on cyber security, including data-driven cybersecurity incidents prediction, visualization and discovery through data analytics and machine learning techniques. Dr Sun is conducting interdisciplinary research between cybersecurity and artificial intelligence (AI), applying AI for cybersecurity. She is also passionate about designing systems to help with users’ cybersecurity awareness education and cyber information retrieval.

* Scholarships of $35,000 (AUD) are available for PhD students who achieved UNSW High Distinction (H1) or equivalent in their undergraduate program and/or have completed a Masters by Research. If you are interested, contact me at nan.sun@adfa.edu.au.
