Dr. Dan Forsberg received his M.Sc. degree in Computer
Science (software engineering and telecommunications software) from
the Helsinki University of Technology, Finland, in 2000 and his Ph.D
on 2010 from Aalto University, Computer Science department
(communications security). During his master's studies he was a core
member and developer of The Dynamics - HUT Mobile IP software. He
worked in Nokia Research Center in Helsinki from 2000 to 2009. In
Nokia Dan was involved in and led many research projects focused on
mobility and security in TCP/IP stack for future mobile devices. He
was active in IETF and authored some Internet-Drafts and one RFC in
the area of user to network interfaces (EAP, AAA, PANA). In recent
years, the main focus of his work was on the SAE/LTE security
standardization in the 3GPP security group (SA3). Dan led the SAE/LTE
security standardization work in Nokia. He was also nominated as one
of the Nokia top inventors in 2007-2008.
Dan started his D.Sc. (Tech), i.e., Ph.D. studies while working in
Nokia and published several scientific papers in the area of
"Improving and Distributing Key Management for Mobile Networks". He
joined Helsinki University of Technology in 2009 for finalizing his
Ph.D studies. Dan is also a skilled software engineer, a Unix and
network administration expert for many years. He started extensively
using Linux 1995 when he started graduate studies.
