Internship Research Protecting user privacy from advertising networks. Guide: Dr. Saurabh Panjwani, Bell Labs, India Dr. Sharad Jaiswal, Bell Labs, India (Jan, 13 Present)

The project involved understanding the concept of online behavioral 1 of 3

advertising (OBA) and how cookies are being used (by ad networks) to provide customized ads to users. It also involved investigating (through a user study) if there were conditions in which OBA leads to leakage of sensitive information about users to ad networks. The final step was to build a tool which fits into standard browsers (as a plugin) and protects sensitive information about users from being leaked to ad networks while still ensuring some of the benefits of OBA. Research Analysis of a practical key-recovery attack against APOP Guide: Prof. Anish Mathuria, DA-IICT, India (May, 12 July, 12) Team Size -2

The internship involved understanding and analyzing a password recovery attack against APOP (Authenticated Post office protocol) which was proposed by Gaeten Leurent in the paper Practical keyrecovery attack against APOP, an MD5 based challenge-response authentication. As part of the internship, I understood the working of MD-5, the Wangs attack and the conditions needed for such an attack to occur. With the help of the initial understanding of these concepts, I further examined how collisions in hash functions can be used to recover part of the password in APOP. Research MILLEE (Mobile and Immersive Learning for literacy in Emerging Economies) Guide: Prof. Matthew Kam, CMU, USA (May, 10 Dec, 10)

The main aim of the project was to design immersive, enjoyable, language learning games on cellphones, modeled after the traditional village games that rural children find familiar in order to educate them. My role in the team was to play-test the games and conduct alpha and beta tests to find out any potential bugs and design flaws. I had to report them in form of a formal report so that they can be fixed. Also I was involved in managing the content required for the games including the voiceovers, XMLs etc.
