Paul Asadoorian To Keynote RVAsec 2023!

This may seem like Déjà vu but a silly pandemic won’t stop us!

We are pleased to announce once again that Paul Asadoorian will be keynoting RVAsec!  Paul is the Founder & CTO of Security Weekly as well as a Principal Security Evangelist at Eclypsium.

Paul spent time “in the trenches” implementing security programs for a lottery company and then a large university. Paul is offensive, having spent several years as a penetration tester. He is the founder of the Security Weekly podcast network, offering freely available shows on the topics of information security and hacking. As Product Evangelist for Tenable Network Security, Paul built a library of materials on the topic of vulnerability management. When not hacking together embedded systems (or just plain hacking them) or coding silly projects in Python, Paul can be found researching his next set of headphones.
