ABOUT ME
Ntung Ngela Landon
Cybersecurity Researcher.
PROFILE
I am a cybersecurity researcher interested in understanding and securing AI systems operating in real-world environments.
My research journey began with biometric security, particularly Face Presentation Attack Detection. Through this work I became interested in a broader question: how reliable are the security and fairness claims we make about AI systems?
This has led me to investigate demographic fairness, architectural bias, distribution shift, reproducibility, and AI security.
