Short Bio
Hello! My name is Kambiz (pronounced come-bees) Ghazinour! I'm Professor and Chair of Department of CyberSecurity at the State University of New York (SUNY) in Canton. We have two popular programs of Cybersecurity and Data Science (AI).
I am directing the Advanced Information Security and Privacy (AISP) lab. If you are interested to join the lab, feel free to send me an email.
Prior to this position, I was an Assistant Professor at Department of Computer Science at Kent State University from 2015 to 2019. I received my PhD In 2012 in the area of Data Security and Privacy from University of Calgary and was a Post-doc Fellow at the University of Ottawa and Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario from 2012 to 2014.
In 2007, I received my Masters at the University of New Brunswick in the area of High Performance Scientific Computing. In 2003 I received my Bachelors in Software Engineering and from 1998 to 2005, I took on many roles including Software Developer, Systems Analyst and Database Administrator.

DigitalPASS Game |
|
Digital-PASS is a simulation-based approach to privacy education under CyberSpara Inc efforts. This simulation model teaches players how to protect their privacy in cyberspace by simulating a social media environment and the players experience threats and learn from their behavior. It is an effective tool to teach cybersecurity and digital fluency. This is an ongoing research and Digital-PASS has the US Patent patent 11,972,026 . Two manuscripts related to this research can be found here presented at ACM WPES 2019 and here presented at EUSPN 2020. Let us know if you would like to use the simulator for your organization/school or if you would like to learn more about it. Email me at ghazinourk@canton.edu |
