"Don't call it a comeback, I've been here for years" Ben maintains he's an information security professional with over 15 long hard years and tens of shell accounts of experience. He's previously worked as an operations engineer for Puppet Labs, (yes that long ago, hence the comeback). He's also worked at global Fortune 500 companies, down to small startups on key areas of security, networking, and infrastructure. He's spoken all over the world, in any city that has good third wave coffee, on topics relating to DevOps and all it entails, intrusion detection, buzzword conscious Docker, and why Curl Piped to Sudo Bash is the worst. He also does a mean She-Ra impersonation.
