Professor Ross Anderson, FRS, FREng Our dear friend and treasured long term campaigner for privacy and security, Professor of Security Engineering at Cambridge University and Edinburgh University, Lovelace Medal winner, died suddenly at the family home in Cambridge overnight. His wife, Shireen is with their children and grandchildren. Ross had suffered heart problems for some years. He recently mentioned experiencing Covid reinfection, causing brain fog as a sequel. He was 67. His loss leaves a void for his family and for us all who care about digital privacy and security, as an inspiration and a doughty fighter, over many decades. Goodbye, my friend
