PRIVACY IN FUTURE COMPUTATION AND COMMUNICATION PLATFORM

Panelists:

Levente Buttyán

Levente Buttyán was born in 1970 in Salgótarján, Hungary. He received the M.Sc. degree in Computer Science from the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME) in 1995, and earned the Ph.D. degree from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology - Lausanne (EPFL) in 2002. In 2003, he joined the Department of Telecommunications at BME, where he currently holds a position as an Associate Professor and leads the Laboratory of Cryptography and Systems Security (CrySyS). His main research interests are in the design and analysis of secure protocols and privacy enhancing mechanisms for wireless networked embedded systems (including wireless sensor networks, mesh networks, vehicular communications, and RFID systems).

Loukas Lazos

I am a faculty member of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at the University of Arizona. Before joining the University of Arizona, I was a co-director of the Network Security Lab at the University of Washington. I received my Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in Electrical Engineering at the University of Washington. I obtained my undergraduate diploma in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the National Technical University of Athens, Greece. My current research interests are in the areas of security and privacy, networking, and wireless communications, focusing on identification, modeling and mitigation of network security vulnerabilities, visualization of network threats, and analysis of network performance.
