Dr. Ali Jaddoa, PhD, MSc, PGCert, BSc, FHEA

I am a Senior Lecturer in Cyber Security at the University of Roehampton, specialising in secure computer and network systems, and IoT/IIoT sustainable computational offloading. My work involves teaching, research, industry collaboration, and supervising postgraduate students.

I hold a BSc, and MSc in Computer Science from Liverpool John Moores University and a PhD in Information Systems from the University of Greenwich, focusing on IoT-edge-cloud computation offloading. My research interests include cyber security, Zero Trust architecture, IoT security, AI-driven threat detection, energy-efficient computing, and cloud security.

Previously, I was a Senior Lecturer in Computing and Cyber Security at Canterbury Christ Church University (CCCU), where I taught cyber security and digital forensics, developed course materials, and led quality and partnerships for School of Engineering, Technology and Design. I have also worked on EU H2020 projects such as RESCUER and C4IIoT, contributing to cyber security, IoT, Data orchestration and energy consumption research.

With experience in academia, research, and industry, I am passionate about bridging the gap between theory and practice to advance cyber security education and innovation.
