Alexei Czeskis
Alexei designs and writes software for Google's identity, authentication, and
security team. Since he joined Google in 2013, Alexei's goal has been to make
authentication easier and more secure for all of Google's users. Towards this goal,
he has been tightly involved with Google's strong second factor efforts and the
standardization and open protocol development through the FIDO alliance. Prior to
joining Google, Alexei worked at Amazon, Microsoft Research, and competed in
cyber-security competitions. Alexei received his PhD in computer science at the
