Work Accomplishments
When Peter was a senior in high school, he built an 8080 computer
from scrap and pieces.
During the time he was in college, he independently wrote a
cardiac pacemaker monitoring and management system on his
own time. He also independently designed a computer-aided
surgery system for cardiac balloon catheterization. Peter got
experience as a chemical consulting contractor for KimKleen
Manufacturing Co. when he was majoring in chemistry. While he
was a student at Temple University, he got intrigued with computers
and it started his desire, ambition and dedication to the computer field.
He designed and implemented the first library of computer books for
faculty and students. He started the first Temple University computer
games group which may have been the first system of it's type in the world.
The games were used by both the students and faculty for entertainment and
training purposes. The system was also used by the College of Education to
assist special needs students in both learning skills and socialization.
While he worked for General Electric, he designed and worked on very early fiber optics computer networks. That predated the general availability of fiber optics. After General Electric, he worked for SRA on a contract for the Army JCALS program as a security engineer. In 1988, he started his own computer security company called CyberSoft, Inc. which sold primarily to the US Defense Department.
In 2002, CyberSoft, Inc. reorganized into three companies and the company now known as CyberSoft Operating Corporation created a new marketing and sales division in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, called CyberSoft International.
Peter designed and wrote the first UNIX antivirus product and it was also the first heterogeneous virus scanner available. He implemented the first virus description language called CVDL.
