About Stefan Persson

Game Developer - Asset Creator - YouTuber - IT Security ArchitectIn 2022 I moved to Brisbane, Australia, where I work as a game developer and asset publisher using Unity and Unreal Engine. I also make YouTube videos and love to help out new game developers. In Sweden, I founded Imphenzia AB in 2013, which is closing down as I moved my business to the newly formed Imphenzia Pty Ltd in Australia.I'm also the co-founder of Studio Centurion AB. We developed and released a new type of multiplayer strategy video game and released it on Steam in 2022. The game uses a distributed cloud back-end spanning multiple cloud computing providers such as Microsoft Azure, Vultr, and Digital Ocean. From 2004 to 2019, I worked professionally in the cyber security and information security fields, most recently as a senior Enterprise IT Security Architect while a large international retail company began to move its infrastructure into the cloud.In my 15 years of cyber security work, I did contract work for public authorities and large international retail companies, holding positions within infrastructure and enterprise security architecture.Before 2004 I worked as a network engineer and infrastructure analyst in the UK for four years.In my cyber security roles, I took pride in methodically approaching challenges to solve complex problems as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible. Achieving and maintaining the “right level” of IT security that balances business and IT risks together with a justifiable cost is a challenge that I find particularly exciting. I worked daily with IT area architects to ensure that network, hosting, cloud computing, desktop, and collaboration architecture incorporated cost-effective countermeasures to protect the organization against cyber security threats.In my spare time, I love spending time with my family. I am also interested in video game development, music, audio, and graphics. In 2013 I started a company where I sell game-related assets and audio libraries that I create in my spare time. This passion also has the benefit of adventuring the outdoors as I frequently take my microphones and recorders out into the field to find and record new sound material to work with. On weekends, I ride motocross which controversially is an opportunity for my mind to rest.
