Alex Stamos

Alex discovered DEF CON 5 at the ripe old age of 18 (his dad rented the room). Since then, he broke a lot of things, built a company to foster security research, and fought on the front lines of a transforming industry. He's currently “bought-in” as the Chief Security Officer at Facebook, dedicated to protecting the billions of people who use its products and to ensuring a safe future for the open and connected world. @alexstamos
