(301) 405-2774
Education: 
Ph.D., University of Pennsylvania (Computer Science)
Biography: 

Bill Arbaugh served as an associate professor in the Department of Computer Science for 12 years. He came to the the University of Maryland in 2000 after serving 16 years with the U.S. Department of Defense.

During that time, he served in several leadership positions in different areas, ranging from tactical communications to advanced research. In 2004, Arbaugh founded Komoku Inc. Komoku furthered research, Semantic Integrity, developed by him and his students into a product to detect sophisticated malware. Microsoft purchased Komoku in 2008. Komoku technology currently runs more than 500 million hosts.

Arabugh received his doctorate in computer science from the University of Pennsylvania.
