Brent White

About Brent

• Grew up with his Solutionary co-worker Tim Roberts; they both loved to break things and then try to re-engineer them.
• When he was in college, he played music in bands; wanted to become a rock star.
• Decided to major in graphic design so that he could make t-shirts and websites for his bands.
• As he learned how to build websites, he simultaneously learned how to break those websites.
• He quickly realized that most websites didn’t have security measures in place to keep him from hacking into them.
• After finishing school, he worked as a graphic designer and project manager; he naturally started building those security measures into the sites that he was building.
• He reconnected with his childhood friend Tim, who told him about an opening at Solutionary, an information security company.
• Says that the thing that excited him about security research is that the field is constantly changing and evolving, which keeps him from ever getting bored with it.
