While the subject of this article has made contributions to his academic field, I do not believe that he has passed the threshold of notability required by WP:ACADEMIC. Furthermore, the article appears to be mostly self-authored, a violation of WP:SELFPROMOTION. —Remember the dot (talk) 18:44, 23 January 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
 * Weak keep. His University Professor title gives him a pass of WP:PROF despite the relatively weak citation record. But it's only a weak keep because apart from that the evidence is less clear to me and also because of the autobio issue. The article could stand to be stubbed back to something more encyclopedic; I have made a start (removing the listings of his courses and grants) but more could be done. —David Eppstein (talk) 03:04, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
 * WP:PROF requires that the professor's university be "a major institution of higher education and research" (emphasis mine), and defines "major institutions" as "those that have a reputation for excellence or selectivity". I would not say that Idaho State University has a reputation for excellence or selectivity in either education or research, much less both. —Remember the dot (talk) 04:41, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment. Sources indicate that he has been a fellow and a board member for (ISC)², as well as editor-in-chief of the organization's journal. I have no knowledge regarding the significance of the organization or its journal, but I'm just putting this out there. EricEnfermero (Talk) 08:26, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
