Senior🎓
Top SchoolGeorgios Portokalidis is an associate research professor specializing in computer systems, software security, binary analysis, and systems programming with over eight years of academic and research experience. He has held faculty positions at Stevens Institute of Technology and currently at IMDEA Software Institute, building a track record of systems-security research that bridges deep binary analysis with practical defenses. His career includes postdoctoral work at Columbia and research stints at leading labs such as Microsoft Research Cambridge and Intel Research, reflecting a blend of rigorous theory and applied systems engineering. Trained with a PhD from VU Amsterdam and an MSc from Leiden, he combines long-standing systems programming roots (dating back to early developer and admin roles) with contemporary security research, and maintains an active lab presence documented at portokalidis.net. An understated strength is his ability to translate low-level binary insights into deployable security mechanisms that inform both academia and industry.
