Dr. Yaseen received his PhD in Computer Science from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, AR, USA in 2012, where he developed new approaches for mitigating insider threat in relational databases. At the U of A, he worked as a research assistant for Professor Brajendra Panda on a project funded by US AFOSR to tackle insider threat in relational database systems. Dr. Yaseen has published several papers in refereed journals and conferences. Prior to receiving his Ph.D., Dr. Yaseen worked at Al-Balqaa University, Jordan as an instructor, and at Irbid Private University as a lab administrator. Dr. Yaseen received his Bsc. and Msc. in Computer Science from Yarmouk University and Jordan University of Science and Technology in 2002 and 2006 respectively. After getting the Ph.D degree in 2012, Dr. Yaseen worked at Yarmouk University for two years 2012-2014. In 2014, Dr. Yaseen joined Jordan University of Science and Technology for 7 years 2014-2021. Currently, he is an associate Professor at Ajman University, UAE.
