Omer Anson is a seasoned software developer with 12 years of experience specializing in cloud infrastructure, security, and Linux low-level systems. He has built production-grade solutions spanning WAF and host-side security using eBPF, ftrace, fanotify and custom Linux kernel modules, and contributed to OpenStack Neutron improvements around Open vSwitch and routing. His background includes DPDK and OpenFlow-based cloud networking, virtio-net/vhost-user implementations, and early work on ROCEv2 and RDMA-backed shared memory for distributed Java threads. At Huawei and Check Point he designed lock-free shared-memory queues, pluggable architectures, and malware detection pipelines that blend kernel-level telemetry with user-space processing. Based in Israel with an MSc in Computer Science, he pairs deep systems-level expertise with pragmatic engineering for secure, high-performance distributed platforms. An uncommon strength is his ability to bridge kernel internals and cloud networking to solve cross-layer performance and security challenges.
