Morton Swimmer was born in New York City, USA, raised there and in Hamburg, Germany, then studied in England and Germany. It was at the University of Hamburg where he came to study computer security under Prof. Dr. Brunnstein and in 1988 he co-founded the Virus Test Center, the first academic research center for Malware in Europe.
After running his own security company for a few years Morton joined IBM Research in 1996 to work in the IBM Antivirus group and create the first Digital Immune System, an automated Malware analysis system. The next switch was to IBM Research in Zürich, Switzerland to research the applicability of intrusion detection techniques to the anti-virus field with one of the world’s leading research groups in IDS and IPS. From this research, the DIMVA Conference was formed. In 2007, he became an associate professor at CUNY’s John Jay College of Criminal Justice and in 2008 he joined Trend Micro, where he still works as a manager of a technology research group specializing in future technologies.
