I was doing this on the side for fun and learned a lot.

I believe the professors that helped originate this idea were a group of hacker PhD students from UC Santa Barbara that moved over to Arizona State. Adam Doupe was my professor his first year and an absolutely stellar academic and teacher.

Wow thank you for the kind words!

Yep I think this list is pretty up to date on the folks involved: https://pwn.college/sensei

And you’re right very good memory! Zardus and I were first PhD students at UCSB then became professors at ASU, and at ASU kanak’s PhD dissertation was on pwn.college

+1 on this. The courses I took with Adam Doupe were phenomenal and have molded me into the engineer I am today. Many thanks to the team behind pwn.college and pushing us students to think outside the box!
