CEO of FusionAuth.io

I am a Technology Entrepreneur with a software development background. Currently, I am focused on solving the technology issues that many companies face for login, registration, and user management. My team and I built FusionAuth: A modern customer identity and access management (CIAM) platform that comes with features not seen in the marketplace today. It allows companies to focus on their core product not the plumbing of identity and user management.

Presentations

Hack proof security

3:15 PM MDT

This talk covers security at each level: server, database, and application. I cover how to secure a Linux server, secure the database, and finally to secure the application.

This presentation is a step-by-step guide that includes two-factor authentication, SSH security, intrusion detection, permissions, sockets, proxies, grants, password encryption, entropy, SQL injection, and social hacking.

Authentication as a Microservice

5:00 PM MDT

This talk discusses the progression from a monolithic application, where the application and user data are in the same database, to a microservice architecture, where the application and user data are in separate databases.

It covers the history behind sessions and some of the issues with them. It then builds on this by introducing tokens to manage identity and finally ends with a complete discussion of JSON Web Tokens (JWTs). I cover what JWTs are, how they are used, the benefits and some of the issues with them.
