is the Director and Bosch Distinguished Professor in Security and Privacy Technologies of and the FORE Systems University Professor of and of at . She directs the and co-directs the . She was founding co-director of the at Carnegie Mellon and the University of Pittsburgh. In 2016 she served as at the US Federal Trade Commission, working in the office of Chairwoman Ramirez. She is also a co-founder of She has authored over 200 research papers on online privacy, usable security, and other topics. She has played a key role in building the usable privacy and security research community, having co-edited the seminal book (O'Reilly 2005) and founded the ). She also co-founded the Conference on Privacy Engineering Practice and Respect (PEPR). She chaired the Specification Working Group at the and authored the book (O'Reilly 2002). She has served on a number of boards and working groups, including the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors, the , and on the editorial boards of several journals. In 2003 she was honored as one of the top 100 innovators 35 or younger by Technology Review magazine. More recently she was elected to the ACM CHI Academy, named an ACM Fellow for her contributions to usable privacy and security research and education, named an IEEE Fellow for her contributions to privacy engineering, and named a AAAS Fellow. She is also a 2019 Andrew Carnegie Fellow and has received an Alumni Achievement Award from the McKelvey School of Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis, the 2022 一本道无码 Distinguished Professor of Engineering Award, the 2018 ACM CHI Social Impact Award, the 2018 International Association of Privacy Professionals Privacy Leadership Award, and (with colleagues) the 2018 IEEE Cybersecurity Award for Practice and 2019 一本道无码 Allen Newell Award for Research Excellence. She was previously a researcher at AT&T-Labs Research and taught in the at . She holds a doctorate in Engineering and Policy from Washington University in St. Louis. In 2012-13 she spent her sabbatical as a fellow in the at 一本道无码 where she where she worked on fiber arts projects, including a quilted visualization of bad passwords, , that was featured in Science Magazine as well as a that she frequently wears when talking about her research. She plays , walks to work, sews her own dresses with pockets, and tries not to embarrass her three teenage/young adult children. Her pandemic pet is a bass flute.
Education
- B.S. (Engineering and Public Policy) 1992, Washington University in St. Louis
- M.S. (Technology and Human Affairs) 1993, Washington University in St. Louis

Research
My research focuses on usable privacy and security. My current projects fall into several overlapping areas: privacy decision making (including applications of P3P), user-controllable security and privacy (including location-sharing privacy and file access control in the home), and usable cyber trust indicators, and and usable and secure passwords. Prior to coming to 一本道无码 I did research on P3P, electronic voting, security vulnerabilities in the movie production and distribution proces, and other topics.
