Jacque Blanchard

From a teenage hacker to an accomplished information security professional over a 17 year span, Jacquelyn Blanchard focuses on designing secure embedded systems that thwart the bad guys. Back when Jacquelyn was in her 20s (a long time ago), she earned her B.S. in Business Administration with emphasis in Computer Science and her M.A. in Business and Organizational Security Management. In her spare time, Jacquelyn enjoys walking in the woods, for weeks at a time, up and down very steep hills.

Russell Mosley

Russell Mosley (@sm0kem) has nineteen years’ experience in systems administration, IT operations, and information security operations and management. He is currently the CISO for a government contractor. He volunteers at the BSidesDC Crypt Kids event and is also an organizer with the DEF CON Blue Team Village.

Brian Baskin

Brian Baskin (@bbaskin) is a Technical Director of Threat Research with a specialty in digital forensics, incident response and malware analysis. Baskin was previously an intrusions analyst for the US Defense Cyber Crime Center and has studied and presented research on cyber threats for over 20 years. He has authored multiple security books and develops open source tools for more efficient malware analysis.

Jeff Brocious

Jeff Brocious (@JeffBSecurity) is currently working for a local company as Manager of Internal Security. Over his 30+ year career, he has worked on various software development projects, as well as helping his companies become more secure. So how does that tie in with BSidesCharm? After attending BSidesSF in 2013, he sent an email to Security BSides asking why there didn’t seem to be a BSides in Maryland. The simple response was “because you haven’t started one.” After several email exchanges, phone calls, and a lot of thought, he decided to take on the task of starting a BSides in the Baltimore area. After what seemed like forever, a small group of volunteers was able to put together the first BSidesCharm in April 2015. Now with five successful BSidesCharm conferences in the books, he is still trying to learn how to balance work, family and BSides.
