Vinny Lariza

"As the OpenDNS Community Moderator, Vinny LaRiza does a lot more than swing the banhammer. In addition to patrolling the groups, he serves as support for people experiencing website blocks due to malicious activity, and helps the research team identify malware false positives. Vinny also serves as liaison between OpenDNS and the public. Part of his work consists of checking in on the communities in terms of activity, and making sure they're on point. But more importantly, staying in constant contact with group members, and providing a point of human contact - almost like a lifeline to the company. Prior to OpenDNS Vinny was the Content Ingestion Manager at a little company you've never heard of called BitTorrent."
