The DNS protocol flaw, discovered earlier this year, is one of the biggest security headlines for 2008. The researcher who found the bug is probably in the running for an award. But USBE's fave pick for rising star is Window Snyder. She is a tech with an electic mix of interests. My Mozilla Security Blog, shows what Snyder does for a living.

Some of her latest entries include Tipping Point vulnerability patched in Firefox 3.0.1 and 2.0.0.16, information on the Mozilla Security Metrics Project, and status update for Chrome Protocol Directory Traversal issues. Snyder's job title is chief security officer at Mozilla Corporation. Snyder is also co-author of Threat Modeling, a standard manual on application security.

Window Snyder was a founding member and director of Security Architecture at @stake and a senior security strategist at Microsoft in the Security Engineering and Communications organization, most notably as security lead and signoff on Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 and Windows Server 2003. After leaving Microsoft in 2005, she worked as principal, founder and CTO at Matasano Security LLC, that was sold to Symantec for $49M. She joined Mozilla in September 2006.

On Window Snyder's blog her interests run from computer security, mathematics and cephalopods to spoken word, snowboarding and glass blowing.

Black Technology

A virtual spokesperson for black technology, BlackEngineer aspires to serve as leading news and information provider on the advancements in black technology with deep insights into black engineering, black entrepreneurs, black education, and historically black colleges and universities (HBCU). In fact, BlackEngineer is one of the very few to promote the achievements of black technology. The Black engineer of the year awards (BEYA) is one of our successful ventures to promote black technology, progress and achievements made in black technology, and the sentiments of the Black community in the US, the UK, Caribbean, and Africa.

 

Black Entrepreneurs

Black technology entrepreneurs are increasingly providing the horsepower that drives the global economy. Over the last two decades, black entrepreneurs have created more jobs, and contributed much more to the economic expansion of the Black community as a whole, than any black pastor or politician. Black entrepreneurs are taking risks and building businesses that generate economic growth and increase prosperity in underserved areas, as more minority-owned and minority-focused businesses emerge, willing to serve the financial needs of Black entrepreneurs. US Black Engineer & Information Technology magazine's annual list of Top Black Technology Entrepreneurs reflects the expanding scope of leading Black entrepreneurs in information technology, homeland security, and defense.
