Kim Crawley

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kim Crawley is a Canadian author of books and articles on IT security specifically[1][2][3][4] and on hacker and computer literacy in general.[5][6][7] Of Maltese descent, the first computer she set her eyes upon was her half-brother's Commodore 64 in 1988, but inasmuch as he refused to let her play with it her first hand-on-experience with computers was with her novelist father's Windows 3.1 OEM PC. Her IT career proper began with being employed as customer support, which first piqued her interest in malware. A wide-ranging consultant,[8] free-lancer[9] and self-described generalist, she has written and consulted for tech companies such as AT&T, BlackBerry, NGINX, Synack, and Hack The Box, and passed the Certified Information Systems Security Professional exam on her first attempt whilst writing a book. She has published with O'Reilly Media, Packt Publishing, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., etc., and lives in Toronto, Canada, where she assiduously maintains a punk/goth aesthetic and DIY ethos. She is an autistic with ADHD.[10][11][12][13][14]
