School of Computer and Mathematical Sciences

Faculty of Sciences, Engineering and Technology

I am an associate professor in the school of computer and mathematical sciences and the leader of the Information warfare and advanced cyber theme within the Defence trailblazer, the University of Adelaide.

I'm leading a research group on Cyber-AI, applying new advances in AI to solve problems in network fragility and security. We focus on developing autonomous and provable cyber defensive solutions. This means building and configuring systems that are secure by design and training trustworthy AI agents to help defend networked systems. By employing tools from graph theory, game theory and AI/ML we are able to develop practical solutions that help human operators deal with the complexity, fast-paced and deceptive nature of the cyber environments.

For recent updates to my work (especially code, data and papers), please visit https://hxnguyen.github.io.

(10/08/2023): We are recruiting a post-doc to work on our industry-funded project on IoT security, please consider applying. See the position description https://careers.adelaide.edu.au/cw/en/job/512206/postdoctoral-researcher-ab-resilient-platform-interfaces.

Short Bio: A/Prof Hung Nguyen is the Cyber lead for the Defence trailblazer (the University of Adelaide and UNSW). He has an excellent track record in working with Industry and in developing academia-industry collaborations. Over the last 15 years, he has been leading more than 15 successful projects delivering solutions in network security, modelling and simulation of networked systems for Defence and Industry. Outside of academia, he has worked both in start-ups (Telari); consulting to leading telecom and solution providers such as Telstra, CSL, AT&T and CISCO; and providing security and modelling solutions for the Australian Defence Force and Cybersecurity SMEs. He has published more than 80 publications on these topics at prestigious international journals and conferences.

Since 2009, I have been developing autonomous and provable techniques for securing the information environment. This means building and configuring systems that are secure by design, not just addressing problems when they strike. By leveraging tools from graph theory, game theory and AI/ML we build practical solutions that help human operators deal with the complexity, fast-paced and deceptive nature of the cyber environments. Our research program is supported by multiple grants from Defence and the Australian Research Council - current projects are shown below.

Current Projects

For details of these projects, please contact me directly.

My paper on network auto-configuration in 2010 started the Autonetkit software (ANK). ANK is currently being used as the auto-configuration tool for the Cisco VIRL simulation and emulation environment. See for example here.

The Internet Topology Zoo that I helped build is widely used in all areas of networking research and development worldwide and has been cited more than 1200 times.

My tomography papers were nominated for awards at major networking conferences.
