About the Author
  • After graduation from Oxford University, Paul developed laser technology for NASA satellites, before moving into IT Security at Cable & Wireless in 2000, where he led the development of Internet Security Services. In 2005, Paul joined Vistorm, now HP Enterprise Security Services, as a Security Architect, where he is technical lead for mobile device and endpoint security solutions. Paul is CISSP and ITPC certified, is a CLAS consultant and M.Inst.ISP. He has recently completed the MSc Information Security at Royal Holloway, University of London.
  • A business first, senior executive, with over 20 years of hands on experience in defending banks, governments and corporations against cyberwarfare. My career in security started when I was employed to crack a secure system, which had locked down the boot process, whitelisting of applications and encrypted disks. I linked TeamOffice (an ICL email and collaboration system) with Microsoft Word to send an email which allowed me to do anything the person reading the email could do and send the results back to me, all without there knowledge. Having proved this vulnerability, I worked with Peter Simpson to create Defuse, a tool that blocked inappropriate actions. This successfully blocked Winword Concept, the first known malicous code in the wild. From these begginings I have investigated all aspects of security to provide an holistic approach to security as a business enabler and currently advising organisations on the suitability of the cloud to their needs.
