Since 1992, Jericho has been poking about the hacker/security scene. His experience has allowed him to develop (and deliver-often in the form of rants) a great perspective on many topics, mostly security related. He has been a speaker at security conferences worldwide, primarily for the free travel to exotic locales. A founding member of Attrition.org, he was also the content manager for the Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB) and an officer in the Open Security Foundation (OSF). He is a champion of security industry integrity and small misunderstood creatures. He epitomizes the saying, "Why be a pessimist? It won't work, anyway." @attritionorg
