The Laboratory isn't afraid to face the future of national security with revolutionary ideas, and as cyber-physical systems encroach on more and more facets of everyday life, a revolution is needed.
Dr. Tyler Kaczmarek is a member of the technical staff in the Cyber Operations and Analysis Technology Group at MIT Lincoln Laboratory. His research interests include Blockchain, data provenance, and useable security.
Kaczmarek joined the Laboratory in 2018. His primary research interest is in the development and deployment of a data-centric security architecture to replace the system-centric model of today. This interest has led to projects working to record interrogable coarse-grained data provenance and establish end-to-end secure communication across security domains, as well as the evaluation of public and private blockchain deployments.
Kaczmarek earned his BS degree in computer science from The George Washington University in 2013 and his MS and PhD degrees from the University of California Irvine in 2015 and 2018 respectively, under the supervision of Gene Tsudik.
