I am Jinyang Ding (Chinese: 丁锦扬), a master’s student in School of Cyber Science and Technology, University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), advised by Prof. Weiming Zhang. Prior to that, I got my BS degree in Information Security from China University of Mining and Technology (CUMT) in 2020.
I am deeply passionate about conducting research at the intersection of security, privacy, and artificial intelligence. During my master’s program, my research primarily centered around steganography—a technique aimed at innocuously embedding secret messages into everyday media (e.g., text, images, and audio) to achieve covert communication, instrumental in situations where encrypted traffic is not allowed. I designed a novel, efficient, provably secure steganography algorithm named Discop, based on the concept of “distribution copies” [S&P ’23].
I am looking for a Ph.D. position. I will be thrilled if you are interested in my profile. Feel free to contact me by email!
I want to put a DING in the universe. — Steve Jobs
