Susanne Wetzel

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Susanne Gudrun Wetzel is a German computer scientist and professor at the Department of Computer Science at the Stevens Institute of Technology (SIT) in Hoboken (New Jersey) .

Career

Wetzel graduated from the University of Karlsruhe (Technical University) with a degree in computer science in 1993 and received his doctorate in computer science under Johannes Buchmann at the Saarland University in 1998 with a dissertation on the subject of "Lattice Basis Reduction Algorithms and their Applications". This was followed by research activities for DaimlerChrysler in Stuttgart , Lucent Technologies Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill (New Jersey) and RSA Laboratories in Stockholm . In 2002 she moved to the Stevens Institute of Technology (SIT) in Hoboken as an Assistant Professor . Today she is a full professor in the Computer Science Department at SIT.

Susanne Wetzel's main research areas are cryptography and algorithmic number theory . Within cryptography, she focuses primarily on secure multi-party computing ("Secure multi-party computation" (SMC) with applications in barter , account reconciliation, electronic reconciliations and auctions), wireless security , privacy and biometrics . In the algorithmic number theory, her research focuses mainly on organization theory ( "lattice theory") and in particular the development of new algorithms and heuristics to base reduction of associations ( "lattice basis reduction"). Her research projects were funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Department of Defense (DoD).

Wetzel is co-designer and director of the program for the university degree "Bachelor of Science in Cybersecurity" at SIT. She also directs the SIT scholarship program "Scholarships for Service". Wetzel is a member of the committee for the “Colloquium for Information Systems Security Education” (CISSE), sits on the board of the “Center for Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science” (DIMACS) and is one of the members of the INSuRE project (“Information Security Research and Education ”) participating researchers. She is the Program Director for the Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace (SaTC) program at the National Science Foundation .
