Welcome to FEAST 2020
The 2020 Workshop on Forming an Ecosystem Around Software Transformation (FEAST 2020)
will be held in conjunction with the ACM Conference on
Computer and Communications Security (CCS) on November 13th, 2020. The
workshop is geared toward discussion and understanding of several
critical topics surrounding software executable transformation for
improving the security and efficiency of all software used in
security-critical applications. The scope of discussion for this
workshop will include topics that may be necessary to fully exploit
the power and impact of late-stage software customization efforts as
described in the Call for Papers.
Here you can find information about FEAST 2019, FEAST 2018, FEAST 2017, and FEAST 2016.

R. Sekar
SUNY Empire Innovation Professor
R. Sekar is a SUNY Empire Innovation
Professor and the Associate Chair of the Computer Science Department at Stony
Brook University, where he directs the Secure Systems Lab. He received his
Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from IIT, Madras (India), and his
Ph.D. in Computer Science from Stony Brook. Sekar’s research interests span
software and systems security. He is best known for his work on automated
vulnerability mitigation, including randomization and taint-based techniques;
information-flow based malware containment; intrusion detection and attack
campaign investigation; and binary analysis and instrumentation. Sekar's
research in these areas has been funded by several grants from AFOSR, DARPA, NSF
and ONR, as well as the industry. He has supervised over 125 students, including
four postdoctoral and international visiting researchers, 20+ Ph.D.s, and 80+
Master’s. Sekar has received SUNY Chancellor’s award for Excellence in Research,
SUNY Research Foundation’s Research and Scholarship award, Best paper awards at
USENIX Security and Annual Computer Security Applications Conferences and
honorable mention for best paper at SACMAT.

Alexey Loginov
Vice President of Research, GrammaTech
Alexey Loginov is the Vice President of Research at GrammaTech, a leading
cyber-security research company. At GrammaTech, he oversees both technical and
business aspects of the Research Division.
Dr. Loginov's research work at GrammaTech has focused on binary analysis
technologies, including both formal and heuristic techniques. A key
contribution of his early work at GrammaTech was the addition of Binary-Analysis
capabilities to the CodeSonar vulnerability-detection tool. In recent years,
work in his group began to explore statistical, machine-learning, and
evolutionary-computation techniques in an effort to address challenges of
scalability and precision in program analysis and repair.
Dr. Loginov received a Ph.D. in Computer Sciences from the University of
Wisconsin, where his thesis exposed a new connection between machine learning
and program analysis. Before joining GrammaTech, he worked at Hewlett-Packard
and the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center.
