Yajin (Andy) Zhou

My name is Yajin Zhou. I am a ZJU 100-Young professor (since 2018), with the College of Computer Science and Technology at Zhejiang University. I earned my Ph.D. (2015) in Computer Science from North Carolina State University. I am the co-founder of BlockSec, a startup dedicated to building blockchain security infrastructure. I have published more than 50 papers, with 8500+ citations (Google Scholar). One of my papers has been selected to the list of normalized Top-100 security papers since 1981. I was recognized as the Most Influential Scholar Award for my contributions to the field of Security and Privacy. My current research spans traditional ones (software security, operating systems security and hardware-assisted security) and emerging areas (security of smart contracts, decentralized finance (DeFi) security, and the underground economy.) I have served on the program committee for multiple prestigious security conferences and as a reviewer for National Research Foundation Singapore and ANR (Agence Nationale de Recherche).
