Presenters:

  • Sid Stamm
    Sid Stamm is Associate Professor of Computer Science and Software Engineering at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. His focus is on socio-technical security and privacy exploits and their protections, specifically how technology acts as an amplifier to make bad guys badder and defenses more complicated and interesting. Sid pioneered tools like Content Security Policy, Do Not Track, and various anti-phishing and anti-spam techniques. Ultimately he seeks to line up consumer expectations with how the online marketplace operates. Sid has been Principal Security Engineer at Mozilla and earned his MS and Ph.D. from Indiana University.
  • Matt Bishop
    Matt Bishop received his Ph.D. in computer science from Purdue University, where he specialized in computer security, in 1984. He was a research scientist at the Research Institute of Advanced Computer Science and was on the faculty at Dartmouth College before joining the Department of Computer Science at the University of California at Davis. His main research area is the analysis of vulnerabilities in computer systems, including modeling them, building tools to detect vulnerabilities, and ameliorating or eliminating them. This includes detecting and handling all types of malicious logic. He is active in the areas of network security, the study of denial of service attacks and defenses, policy modeling, software assurance testing, and formal modeling of access control. He is interested in electronic voting, was one of the members of the RABA study for Maryland, and was one of the two principle investigators of the California Top-to-Bottom Review, which performed a technical review of all electronic voting systems certified in the State of California. He is active in information assurance education. His textbook, "Computer Security: Art and Science", was published in December 2002 by Addison-Wesley Professional. He teaches introductory programming, software engineering, operating systems, and (of course) computer security.
  • Sam Bowne - City College San Francisco - City College San Francisco
    Sam Bowne has been teaching computer networking and security classes at CCSF since 2000. He has given talks at DEFCON, HOPE, BayThreat, LayerOne, and Toorcon, and taught classes and many other schools and teaching conferences. He has a B.S. in Physics from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania and a Ph.D. in Physics from University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Industry certs: CISSP, CEH, CCENT, WCNA, and more.
