Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Hückmann is a security leader with over two decades of information security experience and a dozen years in hands-on roles, now managing Security Operations & Security Engineering at VGS from Portland, Oregon. He blends deep technical expertise—firmware and binary analysis, endpoint and SIEM architecture, cloud (primarily Azure) security, and adversary emulation—with practical program-building skills from MSSP and enterprise environments. Daniel has driven measurable outcomes like raising SOC detection to 100%, remediating thousands of endpoints, and uncovering critical vendor product flaws during POCs. He’s comfortable at both the bench (RTL, µASM, assembly) and the boardroom, advising executives and co-authoring enterprise security roadmaps. A former Intel security researcher and recurring consultant, he’s equally at home architecting large deployments or writing the automation that keeps them secure. Recreationally a computer user, he brings a curious, research-oriented mindset to operationalize hard-to-fix risks.
