    Event description

    Electronic Frontiers Australia welcomes Vanessa Teague as guest speaker to EFA Talks… an online lecture series—hosted by Angus Murray, chair of EFA’s policy committee. Vanessa and Angus will discuss the prospects and perils of e-voting systems.

    Vanessa Teague is the CEO of Thinking Cybersecurity and A/Prof
    (Adj.) in the Research School of Computer Science at ANU. Her research
    focuses primarily on cryptographic methods for achieving security and
    privacy, particularly for issues of public interest such as election
    integrity and the protection of government data. She was part of the
    team (with Chris Culnane and Ben Rubinstein) who discovered the easy
    re-identification of doctors and patients in the Medicare/PBS open
    dataset released by the Australian Department of Health. She has
    co-designed numerous protocols for improved election integrity in
    e-voting systems, and co-discovered serious weaknesses in the
    cryptography of deployed e-voting systems in NSW, Western Australia and
    Switzerland.
