Dr. Sean Peisert is jointly appointed as an assistant adjunct professor and faculty member in the Graduate Groups in Computer Science, Forensic Science, and Health Informatics at the University of California, Davis; and as a research scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. His research interests cover a broad cross section of computer and network security. He is currently working on security research in the areas of forensic analysis, intrusion detection, the insider threat, electronic voting, cyber-physical systems, the smart/power grid, and fault tolerance. Previously, he was an I3P Research Fellow and was a computer security researcher at the San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC). He received his Ph.D., Masters, and Bachelors degrees in Computer Science from UC San Diego.
Professor Peisert is actively involved with the academic computer security community and is a steering committee member of the New Security Paradigms Workshop (NSPW) and Workshop on Cyber Security Experimentation and Test (CSET), is co-representative of the Berkeley Lab to the Institute for Information Infrastructure Protection (I3P), and serves as a reviewer, program committee member, and organizer for numerous journals and conferences, including the IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy, the flagship conference for security research. He is also actively involved in broader, cross-disciplinary applications of security, including medical, educational, and public policy areas. Prior to the 2008 U.S. presidential election, he co-authored a guide, distributed via the American Bar Association, to help election officials understanding how computer forensic techniques can be applied to issues with electronic voting machines and related systems.
