I am an associate professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Texas at San Antonio. I am also the Director of the
Center for Infrastructure Assurance and Security

Research Interests

My research interests are in the area of Information Assurance and Computer Security, particularly in intrusion prevention/detection. I am also interested in the operational aspects of security and have led a number of cyber exercise efforts for sectors, communities, and states throughout the nation.
