Nikhil Gupta is professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering at NYU Tandon.
… Among other accomplishments, Gupta and a team including researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi pioneered a way to hide 3D versions of such identifying features as quick-response (QR) codes inside printed components. … Gupta and Ramesh Karri, professor of electrical and computer engineering at NYU Tandon, will teach mechanical engineering students the tools necessary for these innovations in the field of white-hat hacking. The researchers have received a new three-year National Science Foundation (NSF) award to develop a pedagogical program for cybersecurity in 3D printing that will include a variety of educational activities and resources around a new graduate-level course, “Cybersecurity in Additive Manufacturing.”
