Plug started his journey in computer security in 1996 when he discovered a 2600 magazine, eventually leading him to his first LA2600 meeting in 1998. From that point forward, he has been involved in computer security. He is a Sr. Defcon Blue Team Village member and leads detection and observability at a tech company. In his free time, he enjoys building Legos and playing with synthesizers, and when possible, he volunteers his time to computer security events.

Foe vs Friend: For the right peas of mind, a primer on using a post-mortem to shift into preparation to proactively manage InT risks, plus how to preclude the usual pitfalls to promote positive reinforcement and minimize paranoia.
