The team was led by Kevin Bock (in photo), a fourth-year doctoral student in computer science, and his adviser, assistant professor of computer science Dave Levin.

The two-year fellowship offers an opportunity to work closely with faculty and graduate students in the cybersecurity center.

He has been named a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery for his contributions to algorithms, probabilistic methods, and networks, making him the eleventh UMIACS member to receive this honor.

The expert in human-centered security and privacy will help lead the center for the next five months, after which she will assume a new role as the center’s director.

The forum brings together scientists, practitioners and policymakers to address a suite of issues related to cyber resilience, as well as examine the strength and vitality of the U.S. information and communications infrastructure.

The award recognizes Votipka's excellence in usable privacy and security research and his dedication to mentorship and community service.

The paper is being recognized as having had significant influence in the field of programming languages over the past decade.

The accepted papers exemplify a commitment to human-centered security research and scholarship from MC2 faculty, postdocs, students and alumni.

Being hired by top universities and companies is a testament to their creativity, hard work and ambition, as well as to the excellence of faculty in MC2 that provide support and mentorship.
