Do you stand treat? You evidently don't know me. I am not a security expert, why should I be? But now that you ask... in 2001 I published a paper in an ACM SIGCOMM conference (reprinted in a supplement to the ACM Computer Communication Review in the same month) about security in distributed computing environments. This paper received a recommendation as "a very good paper, that should be published even if it means extending the program". In this paper I proposed an answer to a security problem in mobile agents that "remained open for more than five years and most people in the field believe was unsolvable". I was one of the youngest speakers at a plenary session of the ACM SIGCOMM. That paper allowed me to get a position as full professor at my University. But I am not a security expert at all. In a year or so, I will probably leave this University to get a position at a research lab at the Institute of Nanotechnology sponsored by our government to work on a very different research field. > Nick is right from start to finish and you can learn a lot of his > friendly text. Honestly, you have a wicked meaning for the word "friendly".
