Eric Eide, University of Utah research assistant professor of computer science, stands in the computer science department's "Machine Room" where racks of web servers sit. It is on these computers that Eide, U computer science associate professor John Regehr, and their research team created and tested A3, a suite of computer applications that defeat malware and automatically repair the damage it causes. The project could help lead to better consumer software defenses.
