The UMBC Cyber Defense Lab
Issues in Document Security
Charles Nicholas, UMBC
Joint work with Robert Joyce, Ran Liu, Edward Raff, Maksim Eren, Rick Forno, and Cynthia Matuszek
12–1pm Friday, May 9, 2025, online
When hitherto separate areas of science intersect, research opportunities tend to pop up. So it is with the fields of Document Engineering and Cybersecurity. We present a summary of recent and ongoing work in our lab, including dealing with malicious PDF files, the construction of useful data sets, the use of tensor decomposition, and ongoing work in clustering, symbolic computation, and AI-generated code. We will point out certain themes in our work, as well as certain outstanding problems.
Charles Nicholas has been a faculty member at UMBC since 1988. He received the B.S. degree from the University of Michigan-Flint and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from The Ohio State University, all in computer science. He has served five times as General Chair of the Conference on Information and Knowledge Management, and twice as Chair of the ACM Symposium on Principles of Document Processing. He served as chair of the Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering from 2003 to 2010.
Support for this event was provided in part by the National Science Foundation under SFS grant DGE-1753681.
