About

Ramesh Karri is a leading authority at the intersection of cybersecurity and cyber-physical systems, with a particular focus on the built environment and digital manufacturing. His work addresses critical vulnerabilities in emerging technologies, from the commissioning of smart buildings to the security of Industry 4.0 production lines. Karri’s research is foundational in establishing threat modeling frameworks for the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry, a domain where digital integration has outpaced security protocols. His 2020 paper on cyber security threat modeling in the AEC industry, with 50 citations, is a key reference for practitioners seeking to secure complex building systems. More recently, Karri has ventured into the frontier of robotics and artificial intelligence, exploring how to ground Large Language Models (LLMs) for reliable robot task planning. His 2025 work tackles the critical problem of LLM hallucination in physical systems, proposing closed-loop state feedback to ensure that AI-generated plans are both feasible and safe. By bridging cybersecurity with AI-driven automation, Karri is shaping the future of secure, intelligent infrastructure.
