Dr Anand Kumar Mishra
Dr Anand Kumar Mishra is an Assistant Professor, Computer Science and Engineering at NIIT University (NU). Mr Mishra has earned his PhD in Computer Science and Engineering with a major in Cloud Forensics from Malaviya National Institute of Technology Jaipur. The central component of his research has been cloud forensics, more specifically in virtualization and containerization systems. The target applications of his research are to develop a digital forensic model for cloud computing environment and in the domain of cloud-based banking technology that will ensure the reduction of operational risks, and improve resiliency

In his latest endeavour, he has worked as a faculty at National Institute of Technology Sikkim. While in the US, he worked as a researcher at Information Technology Laboratory, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Gaithersburg, Maryland. He has publications in peer reviewed journal, international conferences, and book chapters. He is the author of “Interagency Report 8006” published by NIST US. He is a member of NIST Cloud Computing – Forensic Science Working Group (NCC – FSWG) US and Cloud Computing Innovation Council of India (CCICI).
