Alissa is an enthusiastic hacker and researcher. Alissa aims to bring fun and fundaments through their conferences like this one. In their past lives, they managed an anti-fraud SOC, taught at Purdue University, and pursued their PhD. However, they gave up academia to work at Bishop Fox, where they are a solutions architect. While not scoping pentests, Alissa is the COO of another security conference - CircleCityCon, a proud dog parent, and competitive wardriver. They eagerly volunteer and give back to their local hacker community through mentoring and friendship. Alissa’s previous conferences talks have focused on anti-forensics, malware, physical security, and digital forensics.
