About Event

The SF Systems Meetup is back for the new year! This meetup, our theme is correctness and security. It's easy to write a distributed protocol, but very hard to ensure that they are resilient to failures and malicious actors.

We're excited to have two headline talks for this meetup!

  • Jayaprabhakar (JP) Kadarkarai, the creator of the FizzBee model checker, will show us how modern tools make it easy to bring formally verified guarantees to our distributed systems

  • Vivian Fang, a PhD Student at UC Berkeley and research collaborator with Signal, will show us how advanced protocols are used by Signal to enable secure encryption key storage even in the face of malicious hosts

This meetup is generously hosted by Databricks at their SF office. Food and drinks will be provided!
