We all know the story: a farm, a kid, a Commodore 64, and a modem maxing out at 300 bps. A few unexpected phone bills later, and young Ian Allison is figuring out how to game the system so he can keep using his newfound gateway to the world of tech. According to Ian, that is where he began building the foundation of skills for his career in computer security. At the recent All Day DevOps conference, Ian (@iallison), now with Intuit, talked about his history of being «that» security guy. You know, the one who thinks developers don’t care about security or deadlines, and, really, are just plain «stupid.» But, don’t worry, he is enlightened now and realizes that we all have the same goal – everyone wants to build a secure system.
