Jean Camp - Bio

Jean Camp is an Associate Professor at the School of Informatics and a Senior Member of the IEEE. Jean Camp is a pioneer in the interdisciplinary study of trust and design for values. Professor Camp joined Informatics after becoming an Associate Professor at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government. At the Kennedy School she founded the information technology policy group, which has become integrated into a collaborative effort across multiple schools for the study of design and values. She has been also affiliated with the Program for Internet and Telecoms Convergence for nearly a decade. While at Harvard she was affiliated with the National Center for Digital Government. Her first book, Trust and Risk in Internet Commerce, was the first to propose the now widely-used definition of trust as including privacy, reliability and security. Her early work on technical trust in social context included examination of technical and policy conflicts between dimensions of trust in e-commerce, libraries and in information searching. Her concepts of trust in research have been built upon spatial metaphors and she is working on developing mechanisms for placing trust into social context.

Her service to the academic community includes two terms as a Director of Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility and a term as President of the International Financial Cryptography Association. (A full list of activities is available on her cv.) Prof. Camp's fundamental research question is if and when can construction of technologies of trust can be value neutral. She has examined this question in identity systems, voting systems and e-commerce. She is beginning her examination in ubiquitous computing and information control. Her working hypothesis is that an examination of trust assumptions in security systems illustrates embedded values, and the technical simplifying assumptions can create social complexity.

Before joining Harvard University Prof. Camp was a Senior Member of the Technical Staff at Sandia National Laboratories. At Sandia National Laboratories her work focused on distributed trust in a clustering system that would now be called peer-to-peer. As part of her interest in survivability Prof. Camp worked on a tool for use on the meta-computing platform build under the Advanced Strategic Computing Initiative. This tool, Lilith, was designed to provide highly scalable, easy distribution of user code across a heterogeneous computing platform. Highly scalable code can result in highly scalable security failures if not properly designed and implemented.



Prof. Camp received her Ph.D. at Carnegie Mellon University where her studies combined networks, computer science and public policy. These studies built upon her undergraduate work in electrical engineering and mathematics, and her graduate work in electrical engineering.

Prof. Camp's studies at Carnegie Mellon focused on electronic commerce.
