Federico Kirschbaum
termsecurityevents
Co-founder of Ekoparty (2001) and, with Francisco Amato, of Infobyte - the Argentine research company behind Faraday, the collaborative penetration-testing platform.
Kirschbaum represents the pattern that makes the Argentine scene distinctive: the conference and the research companies grew from the same group of people, so talks, tooling and commercial work reinforce each other instead of competing. He has continued presenting original research internationally, including at Black Hat, which is the practical rebuttal to the assumption that serious offensive research happens only in the northern hemisphere.
