Profile

Coming from a (UNIX) system administration and networking background, security was always a big consideration for Eva when dealing with internet facing web servers and applications.

Eva holds numerous certifications including OSCP, GSEC, GCIH, GCIA, GPEN, GXPN, GEVA, GMON, GWAPT and CISSP, and has been an @Night speaker. She's also been involved in the program commitee of the 2019 FIRST Cyber Threat Intelligence Symposium London and as a member of the advisory board for the 2019 SANS Purple Team Summit.

In her spare time, Eva enjoys spending time with her dog or horse, traveling to beautiful countries for scuba diving and playing CTF's with the amazing group of friends she's met through playing NetWars. The team came in second place at the Tournament of Champions in both Europe and the US in 2019.
