| Abstract: | Since the 1970s, three women have been at the forefront of developing computer security practices, and their influence is now felt in both the public and private sectors. Details are provided of the careers to date of Martha Stansell-Gamm, who helped to develop Department of Justice (DOJ) forensics procedures for the search and seizure of electronic evidence and who now heads the DOJ's efforts in multijurisdictional computer crime, as well as coordinating DOJ representation in developing international cyberlaws; Raemarie Schmidt who developed forensics procedures for the Wisconsin branch of the DOJ and helped to set the standard for computer forensics now being used by law enforcement agencies nationwide; and Dorothy Denning, a computer science professor at Georgetown University in Washington, whose writings have been indispensable for information security practitioners for the past 27 years. |
