Security & Privacy

Bellovin shares his second lifetime award with Tufts’ Susan Landau and Georgetown’s Matt Blaze for their work on computer science, computer security, law, and public policy.

Associate Professor Simha Sethumadhavan, Mohamed Tarek, and Miguel Arroyo design new techniques to bolster memory safety; ideas are now being used by Air Force Research Lab.

Sethumadhavan joined high-level officials and leading researchers at the Cyber Regulation and Harmonization Conference.
About
The security group works on a diverse set of security and privacy issues arising across the software/hardware stack.
The key research goal of the group is to design, develop, and deploy principled solutions for improving the security and privacy aspects of computer systems.
The group has a broad set of expertise ranging from systems security to designing privacy policies. It is a highly collaborative group and most of their students are co-advised by multiple faculty members.
