He moved to the Bay Area as an early member of Mandiant’s Redwood City SOC focusing on advanced detection methods, spent a year at Yahoo! working on open source security projects such as GRR, and now is a Senior Strategic Intrusion Analyst at CrowdStrike and is back to working on developing advanced detection methods.
