Howdy! My name is Warrick FitzGerald; I'm a software developer, entrepreneur, and Cybersecurity advocate.
I've spent 20+ years working in the AdTech space and have helped to develop enterprise applications for companies like eBay, Bank of America and many others.
I spent many years acting as CTO / COO, and in doing so, I dealt with compliance and Cybersecurity functions. I'm was not formally trained or certified in Cybersecurity, but through the school of hard knocks, I now know what NOT to do.
In 2017 I became co-founder and CTO of a Cybersecurity and Compliance / Assessment technology stack. In summary, this is a software tool that helps companies determine where their weak points are and build up their Cybersecurity "Programs."
I've made it one of my missions to share my knowledge with as many people as possible. Much of the information that business owners and CTO's need to know about Cybersecurity is not explained simply and effectively. Why? It's just not in the interest of expensive consultants.
I recently posted my 1st video explaining what a Cybersecurity program is on D.Tube -
Beyond Cybersecurity, I'm a big crypto fan and LOVE what Steemit is doing. I can't wait to get more involved in the community.
When you hear about predictions on steem distribution don't forget to account for whales that delegate theit SP, as their way to max income, different than other whales that do not max distribute rewards pool
Sorry man I'm a little new to all this, can you explain this in a little more detail please?
Critics against Steem claim it doesnt solve the age old problem and source of all of society's ills, wealth inequality. Data backing this invariably comes from querying the blockchain for data to determine growth trends on a % basis of Steem distribution across the Steem population. Now to be fair, i haven't done my analysis either, but if i did, i would account for the effect of Steem Power delegation such as the wildly popular sink of that, utiopia-io. My feeling on this is that wealth distribution inequality is still an issue with Steem, but that is offset with how much more of equal opportunity economics we have on Steem than other models, which still also have a wealth inequality problem, r>g, i.e capital growth > GDP
Welcome to the Steem World!
I have recently made an orientation video that will help you in your journey here - and will hopefully answer all the questions that took me months to figure out.

I wish you all the best here on Steem!
You are welcome @warrickf, it's really nice to have you here I am also happy that you would love to share your knowledge here
Can't believe how much new and cool tech is here. I feel like I've been asleep - where does one find the development community behind all this. I feel like I need to get involved and contribute to the development process.
I think you should be referring to the founders @ned and @dan who made this social platform a reality.
