I am Jake Winters, also known by my pseudonym "Inference", a cybersecurity researcher
- based in United Kingdom.
- I am the founder, lead developer, and administrator, of Inferencium.
- All opinions are my own, and are not necessarily shared with projects or people I am
- affiliated with.
-
- I write about my research and experience in cybersecurity and also physical security.
- Most of my postings are security-related, but I occasionally post about other aspects of
- my life.
-
- I am an open source advocate for the preservation and modifiability of source code. I
- believe source code should be considered human knowledge as much as past knowledge and
- teachings were; it is how modern humanity survives and runs.
- Source code being modifiable allows it to be adapted for use by anyone, whether to add
- features, harden it for increased security and/or privacy, or provide accessibility for
- disabled users.
- I am also a modular design advocate for the ability to securely and robustly make
- changes to hardware and software without the entire system being affected.
-
- If you want to contact me for any reason, you can use my
- contact methods.
-
- I run the public Systems Hardening XMPP channel dedicated to systems security and
- privacy hardening at sys-hardening@muc.xmpp.inferencium.net, and its
- respective off-topic channel at
- sys-hardening-ot@muc.xmpp.inferencium.net.
