what I'm doing now

This Week

I am learning to type again.

Netlink and YNL

I am officially now a maintainer of the YNL library and Netlink specifications that live in the Linux kernel git repository.

Zero Trust

Having spent the last 20+ years focused on networking technologies, I am now enjoying a bit of a pivot to Zero Trust architectures. Sure, there's still a lot of networking in Zero Trust, but there's also some interesting new problems related to identity and attestation as well as the need for compliance auditing and maturity assessment.
