I do research in computer security. I am particularly interested in computer forensic analysis, intrusion detection, vulnerability analysis, security policy modeling, electronic voting, the insider threat, and empirical studies of security.

I received my Ph.D., Masters and Bachelors degrees in Computer Science from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). I was a 2007–2008 I3P Fellow. I teach. I consult a bit.

A full bio is here.

What's new: I am vice chair of NSPW 2010. I was the Program Committee Co-Chair of IEEE/SADFE '09. I recently co-authored a document on "Resolving the Unexpected in Elections: Election Officials' Options" about understanding how computer forensic techniques can be applied to issues with electronic voting machines and related systems (currently also distributed via the American Bar Association's voting resource page and the Center for Election Excellence). A revised version of the paper was published in the Proceedings of the 2009 Electronic Voting Technolgy Workshop/Workshop on Trustworthy Elections (EVT/WOTE).
