Speaker Bios:
Dr. Elisa Heymann Pignolo is a Senior Scientist on the
NSF Cybersecurity Center of Excellence at the University of Wisconsin,
and an Associate Professor at the Autonomous University of Barcelona.
She was in charge of the Grid/Cloud security group at the UAB, and
participated in two major Grid European Projects: EGI‐InSPIRE and
European Middleware Initiative (EMI). Heymann's research interests
include security and resource management for Grid and Cloud
environments. Her research is supported by the NSF, Spanish government,
the European Commission, and NATO.
Prof. Barton Miller is the Vilas Distinguished Achievement Professor and Amar & Belinder Sohi Professor in computer science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Prof. Miller founded the field of fuzz random testing, which is foundational to computer security and software testing. In addition, he founded (with his then-student Prof. Jeffrey Hollingsworth) the field of dynamic binary instrumentation, which is a widely used, critical technology for cyberforensics. Prof. Miller advises the Department of Defense on computer security issues though his position at the Institute for Defense Analysis and was on the Los Alamos National Laboratory Computing, Communications and Networking Division Review Committee and the US Secret Service Electronic Crimes Task Force (Chicago Area). He is currently an advisor to the Wisconsin Security Research Council. Prof. Miller is a fellow of the ACM.
Dr. Sean Peisert leads applied research and development in computer security at the Berkeley Lab and UC Davis. He is also chief cybersecurity strategist for CENIC; co-lead of Trusted CI, the NSF Cybersecurity Center of Excellence; editor-in-chief of IEEE Security & Privacy; a member of the Distinguished Expert Review Panel for the NSA Annual Best Scientific Cybersecurity Paper Competition; a member of the DARPA Information Science and Technology (ISAT) Study Group; an ACSA Senior Fellow; past chair of the IEEE Technical Committee on Security & Privacy' and is a steering committee member and past general chair of the IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy ("Oakland").
