JOB: Network Systems Engineer Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory
ACHIEVEMENTS: Steven Handy is a co-inventor of technology that strengthens network defenses with virtual sensor decoys that increase the scope and scale of a defended area. Handy received the JHU/APL 2015 Government Purpose Invention Award for the “Deception of Defense: Applying Traditional Camouflage Techniques Adapted to Cyber Network Defense” project.
WHAT HE DOES: As a section supervisor with the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, Handy’s network security engineering efforts have impacted several critical communication capabilities and their ability to resist cyber-attacks. In addition, he is a member of the engineering team responsible for developing the U.S. Army’s Remote Monitor Control Equipment system. This system is used for the Wideband Global SATCOM (WGS) satellite constellation. The WGS provides high-data-rate communications for the U.S. military, senior leaders, and international partners.
