A Simple Software Security Guy at Microsoft!
Ken Johnson (Skywing) joins Microsoft

Following close on the heels of security experts Matt Miller, Adam Shostack and Crispin Cowan joining Microsoft, I am pleased to announce that Ken Johnson, AKA Skywing, has joined our group.

 

Ken brings an enormous amount of reverse engineering and defense-subversion skill to Microsoft. Ken will be working on anything and everything related vulnerabilities, exploits, defenses, bypassing defenses and more. Ken also maintains a blog on debugging, reverse engineering, and security-related topics (along with various personal projects) at: http://www.nynaeve.net.

 

Welcome, Ken!
