Domenic Forte received his B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from Manhattan College, Riverdale, NY, USA, in 2006, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of Maryland, College Park, MD, USA, in 2010 and 2013, respectively. Currently, he is an Assistant Professor with the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at University of Florida. His research is primarily focused on the domain of hardware security and includes investigation of hardware security primitives, hardware Trojan detection and prevention, security of the electronics supply chain, hardware obfuscation, and anti-reverse engineering. His work has been recognized through several best paper awards and nominations from venues such as International Symposium on Hardware Oriented Security and Trust (HOST), Design Automation Conference (DAC), and Adaptive Hardware Systems (AHS). He is a coauthor of the book "Counterfeit Integrated Circuits- Detection and Avoidance". He is currently serving as an Associate Editor for the Journal of Hardware and Systems Security (HaSS) and was previously Guest Editor of the IEEE Computer Special Issue on "Supply Chain Security for Cyber-Infrastructure." He is also serving on the organizing committees of HOST and AsianHOST as well as the technical program committees of various noteworthy conferences and workshops.
