Summary
Akshith G is a security research and engineering professional based in Portland with 11 years of experience focusing on software, systems, and supply chain security. He combines deep program-analysis and reverse-engineering skills with automated security testing, having built graph-based and IR-driven pipelines (e.g., SENSOR) to flag high-risk OSS patches and a Ghidra-backed framework for firmware control‑logic reconstruction. Currently at Trail of Bits after a lengthy PhD and research tenure at Oregon State University, he blends academic rigor with hands‑on industry impact across DARPA-supported and enterprise projects. Notably, his work applies socio-technical analysis and GNNs to real-world supply chain threats, surfacing attack vectors that pure code analysis can miss.
