Dan is just a friendly local cyber security sherpa. Helping people verifiably build a safer, secure, and more resilient world by sharing knowledge and experience through the intersection of human-centered design, product management, and cyber security. This includes the privilege of presenting at multiple DefCon DCG VR Village previously, BSides Melbourne, and a keynote at ChCon NZ, amongst many other conferences.
Dan is also a contributing author to the 97 Things Every Application Security Professional Should Know book published by O'Reilly. Dan grounded by the many years of experience spent security advising and assessing critical infrastructure in Australia, and governments, to small startups, and nurturing communities. That said, Dan is just another noob nerd of figuring out how things work, tinkering, and challenging assumptions; sharing stories and experiences so that we can all make better informed decisions through broader perspectives. So that together, we can work towards building a better tomorrow.
