Dr. Beomjin Jin, an alumnus of the Security Laboratory at Sungkyunkwan University (Advisor: Professor Hyoungshick Kim), has been appointed as a full-time faculty member in the Department of Cybersecurity at Ajou University as of March 2026.

Professor Beomjin Jin received his bachelor’s degree from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Sungkyunkwan University, and completed his integrated M.S.-Ph.D. program in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Sungkyunkwan University under the supervision of Professor Hyoungshick Kim, earning his Ph.D. in August 2025. He then continued his research in cybersecurity as a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Computer Science at Purdue University in the United States.

During his academic training, Professor Beomjin Jin conducted research primarily in malware analysis, cyber threat intelligence, and software security. In particular, he focused on analyzing real-world security threats in depth—such as malware rule generation and variant analysis, cyber threat intelligence analysis, and privacy protection in the web ecosystem—and connecting these insights to effective countermeasure technologies.

More recently, he has also been interested in automating malware analysis and threat intelligence generation using artificial intelligence and large language models, and is expected to contribute to the development of more effective and scalable cyber threat response technologies.
