This week we get to know our Security guy Teemu! Teemu has over 15 years of IT background: conducting security assessments, forensic investigations, and audits to business-critical environments. Currently, his focus is on cloud platforms and application security. And innovating lots of security-related jokes.

Where do you come from?

I'm coming from the Internets, however originally I'm from 127.1 So if you want to send me a message just use legendary "net send".

This is how you can check if I'm at home and reachable.
ping 127.1 -l 1337
>Pinging 127.0.0.1 with 1337 bytes of data:
>Reply from 127.0.0.1: bytes=1337 time<1ms TTL=128

What parts does your workday usually consist of?

First I wake up if I have been sleeping, then I head to the office where all the fun happens.
My job is to make everything a bit more secure.

Here is an example:
for ($$) {
Buy it, use it, break it, fix it, trash it, change it, mail it, upgrade it
Charge it, point it, zoom it, press it, snap it, work it, quick erase it
Write it, cut it, paste it, save it, load it, check it, quick rewrite it
Plug it, play it, burn it, rip it, drag it, drop it, zip - unzip it
Lock it, fill it, call it, find it, view it, code it, jam, unlock it
Surf it, scroll it, pause it, click it, cross it, crack it, switch, update it
Name it, read it, tune it, print it, scan it, send it, fax, rename it
Touch it, bring it, pay it, watch it, turn it, leave it, stop, format it
}

Random fact about you

I had a dog that had only four legs and I can remember 4 digits of pi.

Additionally, a random fact about whoever is reading this is that the last part (4 characters after the dash or A) of your SSN (social security number a.k.a. HETU) starts with 1 or 0.
