About Bradley Chapple

I am an experienced cybersecurity professional with expertise in various technologies. My current role involves executing vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to identify and mitigate security risks for clients, while concurrently serving as a vCISO advisor to provide strategic cybersecurity guidance and tailored solutions to enhance clients' overall security posture. I have worn many hats throughout my career. I have experience in DFIR, threat hunting, risk mitigation, and network security engineering. My area of focus and responsibilities regularly adapts to satisfy the needs of my employer and clients, allowing me to stay flexible and versatile in my approach to cybersecurity. Here are a few of the security-related skills I've acquired:• Security Program Development & Advisory (vCISO)• Network Penetration Testing• Vulnerability Assessments• Web Security Assessments• Network Security Analysis• Threat Hunting• SIEM Setup/Tuning (i.e. SIEM Engineering)• Vulnerability Remediation & MitigationWith a versatile background in scripting languages such as Python, BASH, PHP, C#, and VBScript, I have honed my ability to automate repetitive tasks, making me a valuable asset to any organization. My latest project at Arete involved creating a PHP application that streamlined the report generation process, saving the company an estimated 10k+ hours and demonstrating my commitment to streamlining processes. I have also leveraged my coding skills for incident response, successfully reverse-engineering several MageCart-type JavaScript and PHP Credit Card Skimmer scripts for incident response investigations.I am passionate about mentoring others and have been actively involved in the local cybersecurity community since 2015. As a member of the leadership team for my local DEFCON chapter (DC970), I take pride in attending, teaching, speaking at, and volunteering for local and regional cybersecurity conferences. My experience in organizing multiple CTF competitions and developing Linux-based CTF virtual machines showcases my hands-on approach to security. In 2021, I founded the "PWN of the Month Club", providing a forum for security enthusiasts to expand their knowledge through hands-on participation in CTFs and group discussions, modeled after a book club format. This not only demonstrates my dedication to the cybersecurity field but also highlights my ability to bring people together to learn and grow.
