My name is Michael or simply Hove as everyone calls me professionally.

I've spent my career at the intersection of cybersecurity, infrastructure, development and business.

I've always looked for patterns and tried to figure what makes systems tick and the world go round.

The risk intel briefs I wanted to read didn't exist — so I wrote them.

Every morning at the break of dawn, I review what our data pipeline surfaces, verify the cross-correlations, and make sure the recommendations are good enough to act on.

If I wouldn't send it to my own team, it doesn't go out.
