About

Who is Dave Lewis?
I’m a security practitioner that has been in computer, network & information security for more than a decade now. I have worked in the financial, military, government, critical infrastructure and health care verticals to name a few. Some quick bullet points about me:
I’m a jack of all trades master of none.
I have been running this site since 1998.
This isn’t a paid gig. This is my outlet.
No, I’m not some young kid (you should see some of the emails I get).
“gattaca” is my alter ego.
I’m not anti Microsoft (or anyone really for that matter). Although my earlier writings might seem to tell a different story.
I’m a recreational security researcher.
I’m a massive information junkie (hence, this site).
Liquidmatrix Security Digest is a site that aggregates security news and information that I feel like sharing. Albeit, in bite sized chunks. The content style of this site is similar to the likes of Boing Boing, Gizmodo and slashdot.
I would like say thanks to every one for reading/subscribing and helping to make this the busy site that it has become.


Who is James Arlen?
The man formerly known as “myrcurial”
One thing that can be said is that he is the originator of the term “cyberdouchery“.
He has spoken at several conferences including The Last Hope, Defcon 16, Sector 2008 and he keeps submitting talks in the hope of being famous someday.
He also needs to either contribute more or get lost.

Who is The Intern?
The Intern gets coffee, is dutiful and obedient to one boss while verbally abusive to the other and goes to university.
There always has to be a little bit of mystery around here…
Follow The Intern on Twitter as @SecurityIntern

Who is Matt Johansen
I am a recent college graduate taking my first steps into the field of Information Security. I have a technical background professionally and educationally with a BS in Computer Science.
I’m growing more and more grateful of everybody helping me do my best breaking into this field. Honorable mention to my professor Kees Leune, Dave, James, and all you other Security Twits.
And why not insert a shameless plug while I can
I run my own (very young) personal blog and if you feel inclined to do so, you can take a look at my resume.

Who is Zach Lanier?
Contrary to this photo, I’m not actually a plate of waffles, tempeh “bacon”, and home fries (though I play one on TV).
I am, however, a hacker, security wonk and consultant, vegan-with-vegetarian-tendencies, athiestic-Zen-Buddhist, coffee-AND-tea-lover, and Security Twit herder.
