Denning was given that 2004 Harold F. Tipton Award for her "contributions
to the improvement of the information security profession."
Computer security pioneer honored
By KEVIN HOWE
Herald Staff Writer
First came the automobile. Then came anti-lock brakes, seat belts and air
bags.
The evolution of the computer has followed a similar path, said a woman who
was a pioneer in the field of computer security: first the invention, then
the safety devices.
Dorothy Denning, professor in the Department of Defense Analysis at the
Naval Postgraduate School, literally wrote the book on computer security.
"Cryptography and Data Security," published by Addison-Wesley in 1982, is a
classic textbook in the field.
Denning previously taught at Georgetown University, where she was the
Callahan Family Professor of Computer Science and director of the
Georgetown Institute of Information Assurance, and at Purdue University.
She came to the Navy school in 2002 because "it seemed like an interesting
and challenging environment and because I have a lot of respect for what
the school is doing.
