Andrew Horton

I am a full-stack leader, crypto enthusiast, and cybersecurity expert. I am best known for my open-source security research, forming part of the standard arsenal of penetration testers and blackhat hackers alike, along with mentions in textbooks (The Browser Hacker’s Handbook), academic papers, professional methodologies (OWASP Testing Guide and PTES), and Kali Linux – the most popular Linux security distribution used daily by security professionals.

I was previously Director of Engineering for CoinPayments, the world’s largest cryptocurrency payments provider.

I also advise start-ups, mentor, occasionally give conference presentations, and host the popular information security news aggregator at https://morningstarsecurity.com/news.

I am a believer in open-source in security, McKinsey-style consulting, and advocate Kaizen.
