Summary
Lihan Chen is a Staff Engineer with 11+ years focused on operating systems and system security, blending a PhD in Computer Science with hands-on product work across Android, Linux, virtualization, and anti-malware. His research on control-hijacking and confused deputy attacks informed early career contributions to QEMU/KVM and VM migration at ITRI, where he later led teams building application whitelisting, symbolic execution and fuzzing integrations. At Trend Micro he architected and optimized Deep Security’s Linux user-mode agent—improving telemetry, memory footprint and latency—and has continued to drive proxy, QoS and security features in later roles. Comfortable bridging research and production, he often debugs kernel-to-user interactions and integrates cross-team components to deliver customer-facing security telemetry. Based in Taipei, he pairs academic depth with practical system-level engineering and is active in the Taiwan open-source/security community.
