So… welcome to paidparanoid. My name is Charlie Winckless, and I’ve been working in Cybersecurity for about 18 years. I’ve watched the field change from when it was advanced if you just had a firewall in the late 90s through all the many, many technology evolutions. I’ve worked primarily as a technologist, and have ‘obtained’ various vendor and industry certification on the way (thank you, English school system. You taught me to take tests well). My focus for the last 5 years has been less on the technology itself, and more and more on how organizations can effectively use processes and policies to shape the technologies they use to protect themselves.
While I do work for a large consulting firm (and I’m sure you can find that with Google), all opinions on this site are my own and do not reflect the opinion of my employer in any way.
