Jamel El Eliyah

Jamel El Eliyah is Chief Research Scientist at iShareHow Labs LLC, where he has worked since the company's founding. His applied research spans cryptographic computing, edge systems, computer security, vulnerability assessment, and the policy interfaces where technical systems meet metropolitan governance.

The unifying contribution of this program is the CEIN — a sovereign node that integrates hardware root of trust, cryptographic proximity, on-device economic AI, self-sovereign identity, and asset flows into one coherent platform for community-scale trust.

At iShareHow Labs, he is responsible for the three core laboratories, the AI Agent Research Summit scholarship pipeline, the open research journal, and CEIN field work that connects enterprise intelligence networks to publishable evidence. Many of the projects he leads are grounded in partnerships across industry, academia, and government — including alignment with Morgan State CAP Center strengths in embedded security and trustworthy AI.

An Urban Law and Policy Seminar explores the social, economic, and political forces shaping cities — housing, land use, environmental justice, and local government authority. Jamel's work connects this policy lens to the Labs' vulnerability assessment mission and the Sovereign City Framework.

When cities lack reliable evidence about who is exposed to which risks, both technology deployment and legal reform proceed on incomplete grounds. The CEIN research program asks how cryptographic assurance, proximity instrumentation, and security assessment can produce datasets that housing advocates, planners, and local officials can cite with confidence.
