As a security practitioner of 40 years, Jack's experience began in the 80s with commercial and military venues, and expanding in early days of the Internet. It continued to be shaped by the growth of malware and data breaches as global threats against business, nations, and individuals. While developing some of the earliest proactive IPS systems ( proto-SIEM/SOAR) on an extensive international network (DEC's Easynet) he was able to analyze and evolve automated response systems by observing the nature and techniques resulting in data exposure._
His present focus is global information growth and the profitable criminal practices and State actors constantly assaulting data, inevitably with profound impact. Recent work in MSSP, financial, and 5G sectors continues to expose him to the bleeding edge of data loss affecting every user of this global data repository. His current position, in TTR Group supports detailed research on threat, exposure, and risk to PII, Financial, corporate, and national data from state actors, hacktivists, and criminal elements.
As a regular presenter he's focused on sessions addressing information exposure, attack methodologies, and integrating threat content and TTPs to quick response defenses, but now is concerned with practical approaches to tailored tactical response, SOC operations, and personal data privacy._
