I've tweaked my CV a little, but I'd appreciate advice on how to improve it:

your comments please!

Pedantic comments:

tamper resistant hardware which I demonstrated

Either:

Or:

on a colocated host

Is 'colocated' a word? Perhaps co-located, or collocated? Not sure about this one, but it's not in my dictionary.

General comments:

Your CV might be considered to be a bit long by some employers. In 10pt in Word it takes up four pages. Perhaps reduce the amount of space devoted to your final year project, your other skills and interests paragraph, your employment history pre-1999, and your summary paragraph. Depending on the job you are applying for you can cut out about 1/3 - 2/3 of the content (as crypto employers won't want to hear much about printing techniques, and so on). Bullet points rather than paragraphs in your employment history might be worth considering too.
