    Brian Rogalski

    My name is Brian Rogalski and have worked in the information security field for 15+ years. My interest in computers started at the early age of 8 when I built my first computer from parts that people gave me. Once I finished my education I started my computer security career in the finance industry as an analyst, where my knowledge for computer security continued to grow. After working in the financial industry and building information security programs, I was trained as a malware analyst and moved to Washington D.C and worked for the US government. Now I have my own company Hexcapes and want to give back to the community by providing training and sharing my knowledge with other people so that we can help secure the digital world together.

    I have several interests in cyber security, many of which revolve around malware analysis, forensics and penetration testing. I also like fuzzing applications and looking for software bugs, and dabbing in programming suchas python, C++ and Swift. However, recently I have found a lot of interest in the area of machine learning, and quantum computing as I feel we will rely on these technologies more and more in the future.
