A recent article in ComputerWorld profiled NYU-Poly, and specifically the ISIS lab, as 1 of 10 “IT Schools to Watch.”
When Stan Nurilov attended Polytechnic Institute of New York University in an accelerated bachelor’s/master’s of computer science program from 2002 to 2006, he truly enjoyed the technical courses he took in areas like operating systems and databases.
But it wasn’t until he graduated and began working as a software developer/project leader for a branch of the U.S. military that Nurilov fully appreciated the project-level courses that taught him about leadership qualities.
“Those classes really help me when I need to work with customers and gain collaboration on projects,” he says.
Stan is a graduate of our SFS program that pays for two years of tuition, rent, and other expenses in exchange for a commitment to work at a government agency for two years.

Sorry for posting this off-topic message in your latest blog entry, but I thought this would have a higher chance of getting your attention.
I was just wondering if you’re still doing any security analysis on Synology firmware?
Users on the Synology forum haven’t forgotten that you made the most valuable contribution to this subject. However Synology seems to have regressed into “ignore the subject” mode, particularly since you’ve been less active on the forum recently. I can’t even find the security forum any more. I think it’s been merged into obscurity.
If you could do another security analysis on the latest firmware (September Beta) that would be appreciated immensely for those of us who are stuck with Synology boxes and would like to know where we stand.
Funny you mention that: I’ll have something for you after this weekend
EDIT: This is in reference to research I’ve been doing over the last few weeks, not because I am whipping you up something in one day.
