Steven Cheung is a computer scientist and cybersecurity researcher with 14 years of experience, currently advancing network and Internet infrastructure security at SRI International’s Computer Science Laboratory in Menlo Park. His work spans threat detection and response, denial-of-service mitigation, process control system protection, anticensorship techniques, and software-defined networking—bridging theoretical research with practical defenses for critical infrastructure like the DNS. Trained to the PhD level at UC Davis, he combines academic rigor with hands-on experimentation to evaluate how emerging network architectures alter threat models. Colleagues rely on him for methodical, measurable approaches to hardening systems and developing resilient detection strategies. Though primarily research-focused, he brings an engineer’s mindset to deploying actionable tools and protocols that improve real-world operational security.
