About George Jones

2020-08-26

George Jones is a Christian, husband, father, technical security geek etc., backpacker, Latin, Classics, and Philosophy dabbler, Emacs Org Mode addict, Cincinnati Reds and Skyline Chili fan. In something like that order. He tries to combine his passions and has thus been know to write Latin entries in Appalachian Trail shelter log books (“Via longa sed vita brevis”), and write blog posts about the intersection of epistemology and computer security. You have a lot of time to think when hiking or stuck at home during a pandemic. Maybe too much :-)

Professionally George has made a living variously as a programmer, systems administrator, network security engineer, open source software developer, Internet Standards author (RFC3871), security researcher, conference chair (Flocon 2013, 2014), security analytics developer and data scientist. He has been employed variously by CompuServe, UUNET, MITRE, Carnegie-Mellon/CERT, Amazon, Redjack and Expanse. See https://www.linkedin.com/in/georgemjones/
