New Book Chapter: Cyber and Information Security in the Bioeconomy

ICSI's Dr. Alexander Titus and Dr. Michele Holko are authors of a chapter titled "Cyber and Information Security in the Bioeconomy" in the new book Cyberbiosecurity from Springer.

Abstract:

ICSI Co-Founder Ron Kay Turns 100

There’s something very special about a 100th  birthday. It’s a time not only to celebrate the life of an individual, but to reflect on that life against the backdrop of a century in human history.
 
The world has changed a great deal since Ron Kay was born in 1923, and Ron Kay has changed a great deal about that world.

Congratulations to Prof.

Impact Stories: From concept to company: How an idea incubated at ICSI became one of today’s leading network security monitoring platforms

With the rise of the Internet in the mid-1990s came the scourge of Internet attacks. At the time, Vern Paxson was pursuing a work-study Ph.D. at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), with a focus on Internet measurement. The LBNL security staff would occasionally ask him whether his research data happened to have information about a particular attack. It often did, but extracting the activity was a cumbersome process that only provided insight after-the-fact. This led him to develop a system – now named Zeek – to more effectively answer such questions.
