Ismael Ripoll received a PhD in computer science from the Universitat Politecnica de Valencia in 1996, where he is professor of several cybersecurity subjects in the Department of Computing Engineering. In reverse chronological order: before working on security, he participated in multiple research projects related to hypervisor solutions for European spacecrafts; dynamic memory allocation algorithms; Real-Time Linux; and hard real-time scheduling theory. Currently, he is applying all this background to the security field. His current research interests include memory error defense/attacks techniques (SSP and ASLR) and software diversification. Ismael Ripoll is a Cybersecurity researcher at UPV Cybersecurity group.
