The Important People

redpantz

Redpantz is some douchebag who can barely get his act together enough to get this crappy conference semi-functional. His likes include beer, voilence and long walks in the park. His dislikes are YOUR STUPID FACE!


Marcin Wielgoszewski

Marcin Wielgoszewski is a security engineer at Gotham Digital Science based in NYC. He enjoys breaking applications and calling your baby ugly much to your dismay.


Dino Dai Zovi

Dino Dai Zovi is an information security professional, researcher, and author. Mr. Dai Zovi has been working in information security for over 8 years with experience in red teaming, penetration testing, and software security assessments at Sandia National Laboratories, @stake, Bloomberg, and Matasano Security. As an independent researcher, he is a regular speaker at industry, academic, and hacker security conferences including presentations of his research on hardware virtualization assisted rootkits using Intel VT-x, the KARMA wireless client security assessment toolkit, and offensive security techniques and tools at BlackHat USA, Microsoft BlueHat, CanSecWest, the USENIX Workshop on Offensive Technology, and DEFCON. He is a co-author of the book, “The Art of Software Security Testing” published by Addison-Wesley. He is perhaps best known in the security and Mac communities for discovering the vulnerability and writing the exploit to win the first PWN2OWN contest at CanSecWest 2007. Dino has been named one of the 15 Most Influential People in Security by eWEEK and one of the Top Ten Sexy Geeks (NSFW) by Violet Blue.


Alexander Sotirov

Alexander Sotirov is an independent security researcher with more than ten years of experience with vulnerability research, reverse engineering and advanced exploitation techniques. His most recent work includes exploiting MD5 collisions to create a rogue Certificate Authority, bypassing the exploitation mitigations on Windows Vista and developing the Heap Feng Shui browser exploitation technique. His professional experience includes positions as a security researcher at Determina and VMware. Currently he is working as an independent security consultant in New York. He is a regular speaker at security conferences around the world, including CanSecWest, BlackHat and Recon. Alexander is a program chair of the USENIX Workshop on Offensive Technologies and is one of the founders of the Pwnie Awards.


Dan Guido

Dan Guido collects security intelligence and detects and responds to intrusions for a large financial institution in NYC. He devotes most of his free time to teaching a class on Penetration Testing and Vulnerability Analysis at NYU:Poly and helping his local OWASP chapter.


Dr. Raid

Dr Raid is a Pwnie-award winning rap artist who doesn't actually know technology but can string buzzwords together in a fancy way. He often huffs rubber cement and uses a divining rod to identify vulnerabilities in software, and then proceeds to curl into a fetal position and cry, pretending the bugs aren't real. Some where along the way an exploit gets written and he winds up drunk. He *definitely* doesn't work for a super huge security company that would be upset about his presentation or profane bio.


Scott J Roberts

Scott J Roberts read way too many spy novels as a kid. He followed this up by watching far too many hacking movies as a teenager. Amazingly enough he managed to combine these things as a career working in Cyber Threat Intelligence and SOC operations. He also enjoys teaching these things, since really wishes there were more smart people doing these things.


Jon Oberheide

I'm currently at Scio Security, a security startup founded by Dug Song and I. I'm also wrapping up my PhD thesis at the University of Michigan, where I previously received a BS and MS in Computer Science. I have a passion for all things related to security, whether physical, code, or network. In my free time, I pick locks, audit code, analyze protocols, write exploits, and patch holes. I believe in monkeys.
