BSides Bristol 2024

David Kennedy

Studied Aerospace Engineering at Uni, but realised computers are more interesting than things that fly. Then discovered computer science is way more difficult than rocket science. Spent most of my career in cyber threat research and building security strategies and implementing those for businesses around the globe.
