Jessica J. Fridrich
Distinguished Professor
Electrical and Computer Engineering
Background
Jessica Fridrich鈥檚 main research areas are steganography, the science (and art) of message hiding, and the forensics of digital multimedia. Professor Fridrich is viewed by her peers as a 鈥渟uperstar鈥 and the world鈥檚 foremost authority in the field of steganography. In 2009, in addition to her many research papers, she published 鈥淪teganography in Digital Media: Principles, Algorithms, and Applications,鈥 (Cambridge University Press) which has rapidly become the seminal graduate textbook in steganography. In the area of forensics, she has developed a now patented method for 鈥渇inger printing鈥 digital photos so that photos can be reliably linked with a camera. Her method is the only one that has been officially approved (it has passed the Daubert Challenge) for use as evidence in forensics cases in a court of law. In total, Fridrich鈥檚 research has resulted in over 150 refereed publications, with over 16,000 citations, and seven patents, all of which have been successfully commercialized.
