In the never-ending cybersecurity war, Irfan Ahmed, Ph.D., provides the good guys with digital forensic tools—and the knowledge to use them.
Ahmed is an associate professor of computer science and director of the Security and Forensics Engineering Lab within VCU Engineering’s Department of Computer Science. In the SAFE Lab, he leads a pair of projects aimed at keeping industrial systems safe from the bad guys, and showing how the same tools crafted for investigating cyberattacks can be used to probe other crimes.
