Her research focuses on privacy and security in distributed systems. In particular, she has designed anonymous, attack-resilient, and efficient routing protocols for P2P networks. Some of her results have been integrated in Freenet, a P2P-based censorship-resistant publication system. At the moment, she conducts research on realizing off-chain transactions to overcome the scalability and privacy issues of cryptocurrencies. Furthermore, she investigates congestion control algorithms for anonymity networks such as Tor.
