About
FAS³A (pronounced “FASA”), the Forensics, Auditing, and Security of Software, Systems, and Agents lab, focuses on the forensics, auditing, and security of software, computer systems, and AI agents. We develop practical techniques to investigate attacks when they happen, to keep trustworthy records of what software, systems, and agents do, and to make them more secure and reliable.
