Golden G. Richard III is an experimental computer scientist working primarily in computer security and more specifically, in digital forensics. His broader research interests include parallel and distributed computing, mobile computing, networking, and operating systems internals. Dr. Richard is a GIAC-certified digital forensics investigator and co-founder of Digital Forensics Solutions, LLC, a private digital investigation firm. Golden is currently Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of New Orleans and director of the Networking, Security, and Systems Administration Laboratory (NSSAL). He is on the Editorial Board of the Journal of Digital Investigation, a member of the Secret Service Taskforce on Electronic Crime, and the USENIX Educational Liaison to the University of New Orleans. He has never seen an episode of "CSI", since he doesn't watch TV. He is also extremely unlikely to eat anything whose recipe contains the words "packet" or "envelope". It's a New Orleans thing.
