Christopher Martin is a DFIR engineer with 13 years of hands-on experience in application security, incident response, and infrastructure-focused detection across startups and large enterprises. Based in Portland, he has built tooling and automation—using Python, osquery, Terraform, AWS Lambda, and Sumologic—to streamline file integrity, network monitoring, WAF rule deployment, and secret discovery at companies like Twilio, Cisco Meraki, and Iterable. His background blends deep application-level work (mobile and iOS security, secure storage, and static analysis) with network and cloud-focused detection architecture, enabling him to translate complex telemetry into actionable response playbooks. He led migrations to centralized secrets management and drove infrastructure-as-code practices for security controls, often producing runbooks, notebooks, and deployment guides used by engineering teams. Not obvious from the title: he started as a full-stack and mobile developer and has malware reverse engineering experience, giving him a rare combination of developer empathy and adversary-level analysis.
