Angelos Keromytis is an associate professor in the Computer Science department at Columbia University, in New York. He is also the director of the Network Security Lab.
His general research interests are in systems and network security, and cryptography. His current interests revolve around software hardening, system self-healing, network denial of service, information accountability, and privacy.
In the past, he was an active participant in the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force), and in particular the IPsec and IPSP Working Groups. He occasionally contributed to the OpenBSD operating system: he was the primary author of the IPsec stack and the OpenBSD Cryptographic Framework (OCF), which was later ported to FreeBSD and NetBSD.
Other large projects he worked on in the past include the KeyNote trust-management system and the STRONGMAN access control management system, the AEGIS secure bootstrap architecture and the SwitchWare Active Network architecture.
