Engineering (First Class Honours Degree) in Electrical and Information Engineering from the Faculty of Engineering, University of Ruhuna (Sri Lanka) in 2004 and a Ph.D. in Multimedia Communications from the University of Surrey (UK) in 2009. He was awarded the Gold Medal for best performance in Engineering (2014) by the University of Ruhuna for his achievements in undergraduate studies at the General Convocation held in 2004. After graduation, he joined Sri Lanka Telecom PLC (Sri Lanka) as a Telcommunication Engineer (2004). In September 2005, he was awarded the Overseas Research Scholarships (ORS) scholarship by the Higher Education Funding Council of England(Universities UK) to pursue his Ph.D. at the University of Surrey, UK. Upon completion of his PhD, he works as a researcher at the University of Surrey, UK and Kingston University, London, UK. In 2015, he joined Cardiff Metropolitan University, UK as a Senior Lecturer. In 2014, he received a Post-Graduate Certification in Higher Education (HE) Teaching and Learning from Kingston University – London. He is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (HEA), UK. He is a Senior member of the IEEE and Member of the Chartered Institute of Information Security (CIISec). Yogachandran Rahulamathavan is a Senior Lecturer and the Programme Director for MSc Cyber Security and Data Analytics at Loughborough University’s London Campus in the UK. Yoga obtained his PhD degree from Loughborough University in mathematical optimisation techniques for information processing in 2012. His research interest is in developing novel security protocols to advance machine learning techniques to solve complex privacy issues. Currently focussing on postquantum encryption techniques to develop privacy-preserving machine learning algorithms. Currently, Dr Rahul coordinates a UK-India project between Loughborough University London, IIT Kharagpur, India and City, University of London. He is a Senior Member of IEEE and an Associate Editor for the IEEE Access journal.Dr. Deepthi Ratnayake is a university academic, a researcher, and an author with nearly 30 years' experience in industry, defence and academia in the areas of cyber security, networking, and information systems management. She currently serves as a Senior Lecturer in Computer Science (Cyber Security and Networks) and is a member of Cyber Security Research Group within the School of Physics, Engineering and Computer Science (PECS) at the University of Hertfordshire, UK. Deepthi is also an executive officer of Information Security Specialist Group of BritishComputer Society (BCS-ISSG), an associate editor of Information Security Journal: A Global Perspective, and a Cyber Security Columnist at BCS ITNow quarterly magazine. Deepthi obtained her PhD in Probe Request Attack Detection in Wireless LANs using Intelligent Techniques. Her research interests are intruder detection and prevention using intelligent techniques, ISM automation and security in humanoids. She has delivered several academic and professional talks, has published in refereed national/international conferences and has authored journal articles of high impact. She also regularly contributes to policy advisory and reaches wider audiences through her articles on current hot topics. She is also keen on bridging the gap between business needs and cyber security education and cyber-crime prevention. She has organised many collaborative events that included participation of university academics & students, professional bodies, industry and government agencies.
