- University of Michigan
Biography:
Trent Jaeger received his M.S.E. and Ph.D. degrees in computer science
and engineering from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 1993 and
1997, respectively. Trent joined the Computer Science and Engineering
department at Penn State in 2005. He is co-director of the Systems and
Internet Infrastructure Security (SIIS) Lab at Penn State. Prior to
joining Penn State, he was a research staff member at IBM Thomas J.
Watson Research Center for nine years.
His research/teaching interests are in the areas of computer security,
operating systems, security policies, and source code analysis for
security. Trent has been active in the Linux community for several
years, particularly in contributing code and tools for the Linux
Security Modules (LSM) framework (in Linux 2.6) and for integrating the
SELinux/LSM with IPsec (called Labeled IPsec, available in Linux 2.6.18
and above). He is also active in the security research community at
large, having served on the program committees of all the major
security conferences, recently the 2007 IEEE Symposium on Security and Privacy. He is also the program chair for the 2007 USENIX Workshop on Hot Topics in Security. He has more than sixty refereed publications and is the holder of several U.S. patents.
