Our Rising Stars
Trust Lab is buzzing with the activities of its newly boarded talented group of interns including our first international student intern Maël Leproust who has joined us all the way from IMT Atlantique, France! These bright minds are exploring diverse range of projects in the space of Digital Trust, each under the guidance of IITB faculty members associate with Trust Lab.
Biweekly Lunches
We recently revived the biweekly Trust Lab lunch with the greatest turnout yet! During one of these gatherings, we had the pleasure of introducing Prof. Chethan Kamath, a newly recruited core faculty member at Trust Lab. Another lunch saw a felicitation ceremony to honor Prof. Biswabandan Panda and his students, Anubhav Bhatla and Navneet Navneet. In the latest lunch, Prof. Ashutosh Gupta presented his preliminary findings of the recent DDOS attack on the IIT Bombay website.
“There is no free lunch,” as they say, and at Trust Lab we combine lunches with both work and play!
