Jovan Powar

privacy & tech risk researcher

I’m a researcher with a focus on cross-disciplinary security and privacy risk in socio-technical systems.

My PhD research at the University of Cambridge focused on bringing a risk management perspective to technical privacy research, authoring papers at premier venues in technical privacy and socio-technical systems.

I’ve since been at the Alan Turing Institute doing a mix of fundamental privacy research and industry-facing work on GenAI adoption in financial services, finishing in Jan 2026.

I’m looking for my next opportunity in research or industry, so if you’re looking for someone with strong communication skills, a multi-disciplinary perspective, and a strong technical background, get in touch!
