PROFESSOR

Prof. Kwon was born in Seoul, Korea, and received his academic degrees (B.S., M.S., and Ph.D.) in computer science from Yonsei University, Seoul, Korea. From 1999 to 2000, he did his post-doc study at U.C. Berkeley and developed a password authenticated key exchange protocol called AMP, which was presented at ISOC NDSS 2001 and standardized in IEEE P1363.2 and ISO/IEC 11770-4, respectively. From 2001 to 2013 Spring, he was a professor of computer engineering at Sejong University, Seoul, Korea. In 2013, he came back to Shinchon Campus to join the faculty of Yonsei University where he is currently a professor of information. He is on the director board of the Korea Institute of Information Security and Cryptology (KIISC) and the editorial committee of the Korean Institute of Information Scientists and Engineers (KIISE). He also serves as committee members or chairs for many international and domestic conferences. His research interests are mainly in the field of Information Security and Privacy, and include authentication, cryptographic protocols, network security, usable security, software and system security, and adversarial machine learning.
