Software toolsmith — application security, automated bug finding, secrets detection

I did binary static analysis for a few years, the spent a couple years *using* static analysis tools in anger to find security issues in C++ code. I did a couple years of client-facing appsec engagements. I've written lots of fuzzers and read a lot of code.

The past 4 years I've worked on secrets detection. I authored and maintained Nosey Parker, the fastest regex-based secrets detector out there, frequently used during offensive security engagements.

Currently a Principal Security Researcher at Truffle Security, working on all things secrets-related.

Formerly at Praetorian / Trail of Bits / Ab Initio Software / Veracode.

Security researcher by day, weird deer lady by night. Big fan of usenet and smolnet and prone to talking in equal measure about Linux and stuffed animals.

Joined mastodonapp.uk back in Nov 2022. I have a 'backup' a/c on mendeddrum.org.

Oldish bloke, got to retirement age in 2024. Now retired, due to the old line about "when it stops being fun, stop doing it".

Anyway, old-school coder. I've worked with everything from punch-cards to Perl, via machine language and microcode, C, C++, SQL, etc, etc. Now a happy Linux user on Garuda.

Getting more radically 'left' as I get older. I despise all racists, homophobes, Nazis, etc.

Just a stern but friendly hare.
