About Me

I split my time between building companies and breaking systems. Currently, I am leading Gomboc AI, where we are solving cloud infrastructure security using deterministic AI.

With over 25 years in the industry, I've had the privilege of leading security programs for some of the world's largest tech companies. Beyond the corporate world, I am deeply involved in the community—serving on the board of BSides Las Vegas, founding the Tel Aviv DefCon chapter (DC9723), and acting as faculty for IANS.
