Our Team
Jayson E. Street
Chief Adversarial OfficerJayson E. Street is an author, speaker, and cybersecurity expert possessing a very specific set of skills that he uses to hack and break into companies to expose their security weaknesses and educate their teams. He has been referred to as a “notorious hacker” by FOX25 Boston, “World Class Hacker” by National Geographic’s Breakthrough series, and a “paunchy hacker” by Rolling Stone magazine. He, however, prefers if people refer to him simply as a “Hacker, Helper, and Human.” He loves to explore the world and networks as much as he can. He has successfully robbed banks, hotels, government facilities, biochemical companies, etc., on five continents (only successfully robbing the wrong bank in Lebanon once—all others he was supposed to)!
He’s a Simulated Adversary for hire and the author of the book series Dissecting the Hack (which is currently required reading at five colleges in three countries—that he knows of), and the DEF CON Groups Global Ambassador. He has spoken at DEF CON, DEF CON China, GrrCON, DerbyCon, and at several other CONs and colleges on a variety of information security subjects. He was also a guest lecturer for the Beijing Institute of Technology for ten years and chosen as one of Time’s “Persons of the Year” in 2006.
