Kurt Thomas

Senior Staff Research Scientist, Google

I’m a research scientist in Google’s Security, Privacy, and Anti-abuse Research Group working to protect the digital safety of everyone online. My interests span security, underground economies, fraud, harassment, misinformation, and practical applications of artificial intelligence. My research has been covered by CNN, WIRED, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and more. Before joining Google, I earned my PhD from the University of California, Berkeley in 2013.
