Mark Mccurdy is a seasoned cyber security professional with over a decade of hands-on experience in digital forensics, incident response, and enterprise UNIX/Linux systems engineering. He combines expert-level Linux and Solaris administration, memory and network forensics, and EDR hunting (Tanium, Carbon Black, CrowdStrike) with practical tool-building—contributing LiME modules and SOF-ELK work—to accelerate investigations and detection. Comfortable across hardware (HPE, Oracle/Sun), virtualization (ESXi, Docker), and AD/LDAP domains, he pairs deep infrastructure knowledge with scripting in Python and Bash to automate and harden environments. Mark’s background in large-scale server builds and documentation at HP and Alcatel-Lucent informs a disciplined, transparent approach to security operations and client deliverables. Active in local meetups and on GitHub, he brings a forensic-first mindset—“all forensication starts with a poke”—that favors curiosity-driven hunting and reproducible processes.
