Soldier of Fortran: Protect ya REXX! Soldier of Fortran has an unhealthy relationship with mainframes. Being a hacker from way back in the day (BBS and X.25 networks) he was always enamored by the idea of hacking mainframes. Always too expensive and mysterious he settled on hacking windows and linux machines. However, despite not having his own he conducted numerous security engagements against mainframes, slowly developing his skills, until 2010 when he finally got his very own. Not having to worry about system uptime or affecting users he dove in head first and was surprised by what he found. Ever since he has been telling anyone who will listen to him the importance of mainframe security, hacking and research. He’s spoken both domestically and internationallyon the topic, been a guest speaker at multiple conferences, developed tools for mainframe penetration testing and has even keynoted at large mainframe conferences about this topic.
