Alexei began his career as a software developer. A decade later, he realized that breaking code was way more fun than writing code, and decided to switch direction. He is now a full-time application security professional, with several years of assisting various development teams in delivering secure code, as well as security consulting. As a former developer, Alexei appreciates the hard work behind quality software and is sincerely trying to help rather than just giving programmers more work to do.
