Summary
Sergey Bratus is a Distinguished Professor of Cybersecurity, Technology, and Society at Dartmouth College with nearly two decades of experience bridging academic research and national-scale applied security programs. As a former DARPA program manager, he created multiple landmark initiatives that redefined safe document processing, live modernization of legacy systems, precise binary patching, and early elimination of exploitable software patterns—work that spawned hundreds of top-tier publications and widely used open-source tools. He currently leads the E-BOSS program to enable rapid triage and remediation of vulnerabilities across critical infrastructure using novel SBOM metadata and cyber-reasoning algorithms. Sergey’s impact is both theoretical and pragmatic: his teams’ tools have influenced platforms like NSA’s Ghidra and shifted how the field approaches parsing, decompilation, and large-scale binary verification. Based in Westbrook, Maine, he combines deep systems and security expertise with a track record of moving research into operationally meaningful technology.
