About Bogwitch

In my real life, I am an Information Security Consultant. I have worked primarily in the Central Government sector but I have worked for commercial organisations and charities alike.

As Bogwitch, I have been commenting on InfoSec issues on many forums and boards so I thought it was about time for me to start blogging about what interests me.

My particular areas of interest include cryptography, user security awareness and UK specific InfoSec related law. Primarily, these areas interest me as I see them as being the aspects of Information Security that are most liable to mature significantly over the next few years.

[edit]

No longer working as a consultant, bored rigid of producing paperwork, performing audits and dull stuff like that. Now I'm an IT Security Architect in the commercial sector. My focus has shifted to stuff like cloud security but I remain interested and I keep a watchful eye and useful contact in the HMG arena, particularly MoD.
