David Brumley is an Associate Professor at Carnegie Mellon University. He is a well-known researcher in software security, network security, and applied cryptography. Prof. Brumley also worked for 5 years as a Computer Security Officer for Stanford University. Some of his notable accomplishments include: * In 2008, he showed the counter-intuitive principle that patches can help attackers. In particular, he showed that given a patch for a bug and the originally buggy program, a working exploit can be automatically generated in as little as a few seconds. This result shows that current patch distribution architectures that distribute patches on time-scales larger than a few seconds are potentially insecure.〔()〕 In particular, this work shows one of the first applications of constraint satisfaction to generating exploits.〔()〕 * In 2007, he developed techniques for automatically inferring implementation bugs in protocol implementations. This work won the best paper award at the (USENIX Security ) conference. *His work on a Timing attack against RSA. The work was able to recover the factors of a 1024-bit RSA private key over a network in about 2 hours. This work also won the USENIX Security 〔(2003 )〕 Best Paper award. As a result of this work, OpenSSL, stunnel,〔http://seclists.org/bugtraq/2003/Mar/0317.html〕 and others now implement defenses such as RSA blinding. *His work on Rootkit analysis.〔()〕 *His work on distributed denial of service attacks. In particular, he worked towards tracking down the attackers who brought down Yahoo in 2002.〔()〕 *He was a major contributor towards the arrest of Dennis Moran〔(New York Times ),〕 * US Patent 7373451, which is related to virtual appliance distribution and migration. This patent serves as part of the basis for founding moka5 〔http://www.moka5.com〕 by his co-authors. ==Education== * PhD, Computer Science, 2008. Carnegie Mellon University.
