1Password’s global cybersecurity leadership protects more than 150,000 businesses and millions of consumers, enabling safe online experiences around the world
Vasisht Duddu is one of 24 recipients internationally and one of two from Canada to receive a 2024 IBM PhD Fellowship. Established in 1951, these competitive graduate fellowships recognize and support outstanding PhD students around the world.
A team of leading cryptography, security, and privacy researchers at the Cheriton School of Computer Science has been awarded $1.6 million through the Canada Foundation for Innovation’s Innovation Fund and the Ontario Research Fund.
The project, UPSCOPE: Understanding Privacy, Security, and Cryptography in Online and Physical Environments, aims to develop the algorithms, techniques, tools, and systems to protect our security and privacy in an increasingly interconnected online and physical world.
Interop Labs, the initial developer of the Axelar Web3 interoperability network, announced today a US$1,000,000 donation to grow the Computer Research Endowment at the University of Waterloo.
This generous contribution will support the creation of an AI and blockchain research laboratory at the Cheriton School of Computer Science, the largest and top-ranked academic computer science research centre in Canada. The laboratory will be named the GENESIS Lab, standing for Generative AI for Secure, Interconnected Systems.
The Math Teach-Off was back again last Friday, this time with a focus on computer science.
On January 31, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., three computer science professors — Dave Tompkins, Troy Vasiga and Carmen Bruni — competed to see who could most improve a group of students’ understanding of an unfamiliar concept in only one hour.

Researchers at the Cheriton School of Computer Science have elucidated a key piece in the puzzle to detect early invasive skin melanoma. Using computational models of the skin to simulate the complex biophysical changes during early stages of tumour progression, the research holds the potential to improve non-invasive diagnostic methods, particularly in resource-limited regions.
Researchers at the Cheriton School of Computer Science have developed a small modification to the Linux kernel that could reduce energy consumption in data centres by as much as 30 per cent. The update has the potential to cut the environmental impact of data centres significantly, as computing accounts for as much as 5 per cent of the world’s daily energy use.
Kate Larson, Professor at the Cheriton School of Computer Science, has been named a 2025 Fellow of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence.
Imagine controlling apps with your feet while you walk. This concept is the focus of new research which explores using gait gestures — intentional variations in how you walk — as controls for augmented reality devices.
