Crispin Cowan joins the Windows Security Team!

  • 아티클

I am delighted to announce that Crispin Cowan has joined the core Windows Security Team!

 

For those of you who don’t know Crispin, Crispin is responsible for a number of very well respected Linux-based security technologies such as StackGuard, the Immunix Linux distro, SubDomain and AppArmor. I’ve known Crispin for many years, and have nothing but the utmost respect for the guy. He’s well published, wicked smart, a non-zealot and brutally pragmatic. In my opinion, AppArmor is shining example of his pragmatism, it’s simple and it works. What excites me the most is he’ll bring a different perspective to the Windows team, and I’m a big believer in stirring the pot!

Crispin will work in the same team that worked on User Account Control (UAC) and integrity levels, an area he knows a great deal about.

Welcome to Microsoft, Crispin!

    Crispin Cowan wants to join the team. You should only allow Crispin to start if you initiated the employment. Cancel or Allow?

    "a non-zealot" Ha! So those of us who adhere to a moral philosophy and refuse to sell out are zealots? Given the choice between millions $ and poverty on the streets, I'd choose poverty rather than join Microsoft.

    Can you clarify if his signing for Microsoft will stop him (contractually etc) developing AppArmor further? As both a Windows developer and a Linux developer, I'd hate to think that this now forbids him from any further Linux work due to contracts etc. Can you comment? mike_diack@hotmail.com
