My name is Douglas Stebila. I’m a postdoctoral researcher at the Queensland University of Technology and recently completed my PhD in mathematics at the University of Waterloo. My interests include cryptography, computer security, mathematics, music, running, photography, art, and travel.

I currently work at the Queensland University of Technology as a postdoctoral researcher in the Institute for Information Security; I do research on denial of service and key agreement protocols. I recently had a research collaboration with Sun Microsystems Laboratories; our project concerned next-generation Internet security protocols.

I completed my PhD in the Department of Combinatorics and Optimization at the University of Waterloo in 2009. My thesis was entitled Classical Authenticated Key Exchange and Quantum Cryptography.

I completed a MSc in Mathematics and Foundations of Computer Science at Pembroke College, University of Oxford, in 2004, and an Honours BMath (Co-op) in Combinatorics & Optimization and Computer Science at St. Jerome’s University in the University of Waterloo in 2003.

Also available online is a full list of research papers I have written and published.

I travel a lot and take lots of pictures on my trips. The best of my photos are posted online. My newest galleres are:

• Australia, May, 2009
• Florida, January, 2009
• Brisbane, March, 2009
• Waterloo in winter, February, 2009
