Anton Sergeev is currently a project manager at SUAI ISS Dept. coordinating projects in information security, practical data protection, communication, video coding and transmission. He is also active participant of the Finnish-Russian University Participation Program. He received his M.Sc (2004) from the St. Petersburg State University of Aerospace Instrumentation (SUAI) in 2004. His master thesis was focused on simulation models for routing protocols in ad hoc networks.
In 2002-2003 he was a guest researcher in Siemens Mobile, Munich, Germany. From 2006-2008 he worked as research team leader at Joint SUAI-Intel Lab. on the development of Wireless Display inside the Intel Residence Communication Program (solutions for wireless multimedia distribution via WPAN i.e. UWB or 802.15.3c). From 2008 to 2010 he supervised several R&D projects in information security: online banking systems audit, implementation of cryptographic primitives etc. He has strong background on data security, wireless communication protocols, video/still images compression and processing.
He is inventor of the several international patents in data compression and transmission and currently is pursuing a PHD in the above areas.
