Acknowledgments
This book could not have been accomplished without the unwavering support from so many colleagues, friends, and family. To all of those who have played a significant role in my success, I'd like to extend my sincerest gratitude.
To Jim Minatel and the rest of the Wiley publishing team, for providing me an opportunity to share my research and for all the support throughout the journey. And to John Sleeva, for his valuable edits and insights on the project.
To Phillip Wylie, an accomplished hacker and friend, for the introduction to the Wiley team and for inspiration over so many years. And to Stuart McClure and Ted Harrington, both accomplished professionals and technical authors, who provided invaluable feedback and insight throughout this project.
To Jonathan Townsend, Michael Farnum, and John Marler—for many years of exceptional mentorship, leadership, and friendship. And to all my other colleagues, mentors, and supporters at Trace3.
To Sean Martin, Marco Ciappelli, and the rest of the team at ITSP Magazine for their partnership and support. And to the team at HouSecCon for fostering such an incredible local community of cybersecurity professionals in Houston.
Finally, to all my fellow veterans, and to my many comrades at Mays Business School at Texas A&M University—Whoop!!!
