I think your field requires that level of passion and commitment. I’m not surprised by your “focus” on the industry. Perhaps I need to get outside more, but generally, security is what I think about. On any given day, 90 percent of what I think about is related to security, malware, computer science, and engineering. Even now, I like to disassemble random software to see what makes it tick. At six or seven, I would take apart landline phones just to see what was inside. I liked to take things apart and figure out how they work. Tell me a bit about yourself?Įric Klonowski: Growing up, I was a nerd. Webroot: Let’s start with the basics, Eric. He has to think like a hacker to figure out how the bad guys manipulate benign software by literally taking apart, or “unpacking” malware. Eric is a senior advanced threat research analyst, meaning he reverse-engineers malware, at Webroot. That’s where today’s interviewee, Eric Klonowski, comes into play. So what are we, the good guys, doing to get ahead of criminals? We know what cybercriminals are doing they’re stealing credentials and laughing all the way to the bitcoin bank.
Chipotle’s security incident affected more than 2,500 stores in 48 states. Yahoo’s breaches impacted 1 billion user accounts. These days, it seems like you can’t turn on the TV or open a news site without reading some terrifying headline related to cybersecurity.
