I'm not a Security Researcher, but I play one on TV.
Hey there. I'm Jay Kroger, a Platform Security professional.
A close mentor of mine told me early in my career that you can't stop a truly motivated adversary. You have to frustrate them, make them give up, make them go somewhere else.
I'm passionate about security architecture that makes adversaries think twice. I spend a significant amount of time researching secure platform architecture patterns across different domains, including cloud security, network security, secrets management, and logging & detection. Coming from backgrounds in both software development and cybersecurity, I understand the need to balance accelerated delivery with security and governance.
You'll find most of my public-facing repositories in my GitHub organization ilysiumdotdev — I opt to keep my repositories here rather than my personal profile to facilitate standards and more efficient collaboration with peers & colleagues.
Feel free to reach out to me on my LinkedIn Profile, or via email at business@jaykroger.com.
