Biography

I am a Senior Research Scientist at the Hewlett Packard Laboratories in Bristol, UK - Cloud & Security Lab (CSL). This web page contains public information about my R&D work, inventions, publications,  technical reports and professional activity. Additional information is available about my biography (CV) and education.

My  expertise and current R&D interests are in the following areas:  

  • Security & Security Management
  • Security & Identity Analytics
  • Situational Awareness, Event Management, SIM/SEM
  • Cloud Computing
  • Identity and Access Management Technologies and Solutions
  • Risk Management, IT & Data Governance and Compliance
  • Trust, Security and Privacy Technologies  for People, Enterprises and Web environments
  • Web Services, Internet and Web 2.0 technologies
  • Adaptive Systems, Automation and Policy Management

I am the technical lead in the areas of Identity & Security Analytics; IAM;  UK TSB EnCoRe Privacy project. I recently become the UK EnCoRe Project Coordinator. I am also the lead of the EnCoRe Work Package 2, in charge of defining architectural and design solutions.

During my 15 years at HP Labs, I have been the lead in a variety of R&D programs including collaborations with and technology transfers to HP business units and international projects (in the security, identity management and privacy areas), such as the EU F6 PRIME project (Privacy and Identity Management for Europe) and UK TSB EnCoRe project (Ensuring Consent and Revocation).

I  am collaborating with HP Enterprise Security Solutions and contributing to their Security Analytics and Security Innovation offerings, in particular in providing risk assessment and strategic decision support capabilities in the Security, Incident Management and IAM areas.

I am active on the publication and patenting front. I am part of various (IEEE, ACM, etc.) conference Program Committees. I am a Senior Member of IEEE. I am also an IISP member. I have more than 45 patents filed (about 80, considering  patents filed in multiple countries) and 11 patents granted.

I run a blog on "Research on Security and Innovation in the Cloud" to share ideas and opinions on future R&D security and Cloud areas.

RSA 2007

 

RSA 2007 [February 2007]: I have been involved in the R&D phase of an Identity Management pilot - jointly developed with Intel, BT and HP Software - in the context of the Liberty Alliance Project. This pilot has been presented at a workshop at RSA 2007. It shows how "identity tokens/credentials" can be securely and privately provisioned to advanced identity-capable devices (e.g. smartphones, PDAs, laptops, etc.) to enable users' simplified single-sign-on interactions in federated identity management contexts. There devices can leverage trusted computing capabilities (e.g. Trusted Platforms Modules) to store and protect identity tokens. More information is available here.
