Amit Sethi, principal consultant, has been with Cigital since 2004. He specialises in mobile security, online game security and cryptography. Sethi’s work includes extracting cryptographic keys from embedded devices using side-channel attacks, designing mechanisms to make those attacks more difficult, and designing a format-preserving encryption algorithm based on well-studied cryptographic primitives for a Fortune 500 company. Even in his free time, Sethi enjoys reverse engineering binaries, analyzing open source software, and experimenting with new technologies.
His words of security wisdom are: Just because you don’t know of any security incidents in your software/environment doesn’t mean that you haven’t had any security incidents – especially if you don’t have good monitoring controls in place.
