Alice & Bob

I focus on advancing our vision, building strategic partnerships, and ensuring our training programs are cutting-edge.

I lead a talented team, ensuring we deliver impactful education while growing our presence in the tech world. We are always thinking ahead and aiming higher.

Founder

42Crunch

At 42Crunch, my main responsibilities included leading the design and implementation of secure product architecture. The focus was on embedding a security-by-design approach, especially for APIs, with an emphasis on Python-based development.

My expertise in Python played a pivotal role in enhancing the security and performance of our APIs. My commitment to mentoring also fostered an environment that promoted learning and growth in Python coding and API security.

I worked diligently to ensure our product was adaptable and client-responsive, underpinned by the fail-fast principle. The combination of easy deployment via container technology and the flexibility provided by an event-driven architecture enabled us to deliver a secure, scalable, and robust product.

Advisor on cybersecurity

Transaction Network Services

At 42Crunch, I mainly did the following:

- Led, designed, defined the life cycle and the architecture of a new company product.
- Co-creating the project code.
- Improved python code
- Mentoring 

The goal ideas behind the new product were:

- We applied the old-new pipelining UNIX concept to split complex software into fast, efficient, easy-to-maintain, and decoupled pieces. A well-known idea but not usually used in typical data-based applications.
- They're a startup. They depend on their clients and need to move change quickly. So, we created the product following the fail-fast concepts.
- Easy deployment based on containers.
- Event-driven architecture.
- Scalable and distributed plugin system.
- Security by design environment.

API Security Research consultant

CIRCLES

I designed and created the complete backend and the architecture for the real-time video-sharing platform.

Goals: scale at millions of users by design, with the most cost-efficiency possible, having strong privacy and security controls and measures.

Google Cloud Platform and its services were used for real-time content distribution. One of the requirements was service speed and avoiding waiting times. So architecture has been developed to be event-driven.

A big challenge was the data model. It should be fast, efficient, and reliable. I achieved them by optimizing the database motor to be as fast as the engine could run and performing some tricks in the data model.

To complement the platform, we also designed a real-time recommendation engine. The big challenge then was the generation of good recommendations with a low system footprint.

Principal Backend Architect

BBVA

I authored, co-authored, or led many influential projects and initiatives. 

As part of my position, I also was talking with other Bank departments. I was listening for their needs and tried to understand the need to improve their security and development life cycle: avoiding security was a stopper.

I was lucky to work with a successful team.

We research with edge technologies and test the latest products and solutions of well-known providers and manufacturers, some of them:

- Rancher Labs (acquired by Suse): Beta-testing.
- Amazon AWS: Security research of AWS Lambdas. S3 Buckets security exposure and privacy.
- Google Cloud: Security research of Google Cloud Functions. Cloud Storage security exposure and privacy.
- Docker: Image security on Registries.
- OWASP: Contributing with new projects and ideas.
- NIST: Sharing internal research and investigations.

We researched how to improve security and scalability in the development process by creating new Open Source software when we didn't find a public solution for that problem:

- DeepTracy: Vulnerabilities in Software dependencies. We released 2 Open Source projects to manage them (before GitHub did it).
- S3 Buckets security checking using a black-box approach.
- API Check: a toolset for testing REST APIs
- Patton: a platform for identifying software vulnerabilities using fuzzy logic algorithms.
- WafBrain: a real-time WAF based on deep learning.
- GitSec: a secrets and private information identification on a Git repository (released before GitHub did it).
- DockerFile Security Checker: static security analyzer for Dockerfiles based on a rule system.
- Redis Security Map: an anti-hacking framework for Redis databases.
- Tarkin: a real-time security anomaly detector.
MIST: a high-level programming language for defining security execution workflows quickly.
Masquerade: high-performance, real-time, multi-location data obfuscation tool.

All of these projects are at the GitHub's BBVA

Security Technical Leader at BBVA Innovation Labs Security

I joined BBVA Innovation Labs as a security researcher. 

My role was to research about security development cycle on complex systems:

- Research security best practices for source code in different programming languages: Scale, Java, Go, Javascript, NodeJS, Python, Erlang, or Elixir.
- Research security about Continuous integration/deployment systems. Create best security practices. 
- Research and create best security practices for architectures based on micro-services, CQRS, or actors models.
- Research and create security best practices for the high-scalability ecosystem with many pieces and services: services discovering and sharing information throw a broker, multi-cloud deployment, many types of databases (SQL, NoSQL, or Tabular databases), and related.
- I gave recommendations for defense services and architectures from hacking attacks.

ONLY FULLY REMOTE POSITIONS

I'm Daniel García, though everyone calls me Dani.

Searching for "Daniel García" online is like finding a needle in a haystack. So, I adopted an alias long ago:

cr0hn

I've been deep into cybersecurity for over 20 years.

I love my job. Seriously, I'm passionate about it, and I'm pretty good at it, too. Getting paid for something you love? It's amazing.

To give you an idea, I started with computers on a Pentium 200 MMX when I was 15.

At 15, I was already late to the game, but it didn't matter. I spent hours and hours in front of the screen, not just playing games, although I did a bit of that, too. I enjoyed tinkering with the operating system, hardware, and everything.

Since then, I've been a knowledge sponge. Whether it's operating systems, development, systems, hacking, or defense, I love diving into it all like a kid with a new toy, trying to understand how things work.

And I haven't stopped.

Since that moment, I’ve been a sponge. I don't care if it's operating systems, development, systems, hacking, defending. I have a blast like a kid with a new toy, trying to figure out how things work.

And I haven’t stopped...

I’ve worked in companies of all sizes, been a consultant, and led teams. I've also created products and services with a killer ROI.

I’ve built companies and helped other startups grow.

I code in Python because I love it. I’ve created hundreds of open-source projects.

I’ve traveled half the world giving talks. A lot of talks. I founded one of the most important cybersecurity conferences in Spain.

An old boss once called me a "machine gun of ideas." I'm not sure if it was a compliment or a critique, but I liked it, so I kept it.

And I'm not stopping.

What do I do? I solve tough problems. That's what I do. And I do it well. 

What kind of problems?

You know when you've hit a wall with a problem and don't know how to solve it? When you've tried almost everything? When you've spent a fortune on consultants and still have no solution?

That's where I come in. I solve problems.

The phrase I hear most from clients is, "If we'd hired you sooner, we would've saved a ton of money." My dad always said, "Everything costs twice as much for the lazy and the poor." And he was right.

Before you ask, I'll tell you.

I'm not cheap. If you're looking for something cheap, I'm not your guy. If you want something done well, I'm your guy. If you're looking for cheap and good, that doesn't exist, so don't waste your time.

Want to know more? Just ask me. I don't bite. Well, I might growl a bit, but I don't bite.

🔥Propongo esto como medida de protesta contra #LaLigaGate

Visto que nadie nos escucha, al menos ejerzamos nuestro derecho a protestar.

Si eres desarrollador de Apps Móviles y tu backend depende de Cloudflare, os propongo lo siguiente:

Si tras varios intentos de vuestra aplicación móvil de contactar con vuestro backend, no hay forma de hacerlo, entonces:

1 - La aplicación comprueba si es sábado o domingo
2 - La aplicación muestra este mensaje (es solo una idea)

El texto, por eso solo queréis hacer, copiar y pegar:

“Es fin de semana en España y LaLiga está bloqueando el tráfico a internet de forma indiscriminada. Por eso esta aplicación no puede conectarse. Es un bloqueo injustificado que está afectando a miles de usuarios.

Más información aquí”

Ramírez Giménez, Román alguna sugerencia de donde tiene que apuntar el enlace de “más información”? 

PD: si tienes una aplicación web, cuyo frontend no está en Cloudflare, y el backend sí, también vale
