Tomas Nykodym

Tomas is currently in the process of finishing his PhD at Binghamton University. His area of research is behavioral malware detection. He received his undergraduate degree from the Czech Technical University. Tomas has worked at IBM-research and Agent-Technology Group. He has participated on several projects related to malware detection/protection funded by US Air Force. Specifically, he developed a system for modeling software behavior using compressed graphs of the system calls made on the system. Tomas also created a sandbox with simulated user activity for safe execution of malware with advanced behavior extraction algorithms to extract behavior of malware injected into other processes.

Apart from his work, Tomas spends his time mountain biking, skiing, snowboarding, and staying active.
