Computers since 1980, programming, games, and now for almost 18 years incident response/investigation of computer crimes.
I am retired LEO, that now works for a security company (easy to figure out, not many folks named Vern) doing DFIR work in the OT space, including Incident Response Plan development and Tabletop Exercise design and execution. I taught DFIR at the college level for over a decade, but am on a break from that.
I went into management/leadership, but I stepped back to individual contributor about 15 years ago and it was the right choice for me. I love the zeros and ones, solving puzzles, and helping folks that are in a crisis.
