About the Author: Mike Czumak

I served seven years as a Communications Officer in the U.S. Air Force, where I worked in various network operations and information security positions and earned a Master of Science from the Air Force Institute of Technology. I’ve spent the last four years working as an Information Security professional at a non-profit healthcare organization.

I currently reside in New York City with my wife and daughter and spend my free time enjoying the city, attempting to learn the Italian language, and dabbling in amateur photography (http://500px.com/mczumak).

I very much enjoy information security and have spent my career straddling the managerial and technical aspects of this vast field. My primary role is developing and leading an application security and penetration testing program, so most of my time is spent performing hands-on testing of a variety of systems and applications (web, desktop and mobile applications, medical devices, etc). I’m constantly researching various security topics and use this blog as a means to share some of that research and give back to a security community that has taught me so much.

I enjoy helping organizations both big and small fix security flaws in their products and have been publicly recognized by multiple companies including:

• Microsoft
• Apple
• Adobe
• Ebay
• PayPal
• Etsy
• PuppetLabs
• Scorpion Software
