Mike Murray

Mike Murray is an innovative thinker within the information security industry, having spent the last 15 years helping large and small enterprises protect their information from hackers and social engineers. As Managing Partner and co-founder of MAD Security and The Hacker Academy, he and his team have focused on solving the human side of information security. While technology can be an effective tool to stop hackers, viruses and malware, the main threat vector to most organizations currently comes through their people. Mike started as a penetration tester and vulnerability researcher in the mid-90s, and spent the majority of his early career in highly technical roles focused on vulnerability assessment, penetration testing and vulnerability research. He moved on to leadership positions at nCircle, Neohapsis, and Liberty Mutual Insurance Group. Years of experience as a vulnerability researcher and leader of research teams have convinced Mike that the most important systems to address in information security are the human and organizational systems, and he has most recently focused on research into exploitation of those systems.
