Greetings - I have been a CISSP since 1996. For the past six years I have been a security researcher at ESET (two fun facts: it's been around for 30 years and is now the largest European security software company). 

 

Prior to ESET I co-founded a couple of security startups that were sold to NASDQ listed companies and helped develop network security software that is still in use today. I've done quite a bit of security teaching (e,g. Norwich University MSIA program) and writing (see We Live Security and S. Cobb on Security).

 

Trivia bonus: In 1991, I published a book on PC and LAN security that was, for a while, part of the CBK.

 

Together with my colleague, Lysa Myers, I presented some research at this year's Congress. I am currently exploring how to share a PDF of our slides with the Community.
