Philosophically Secure

Eugene Kogan’s blog on all things relevant, especially information security

About Me

I initially created this site because I felt the need to have my own domain, before every combination of my name is taken. Yes, I’m a computer geek. In particular, I’m a computer security geek! That means I’m good at breaking things, and making technology do stuff it’s never supposed to do.

Anyway, I enjoy programming in Perl, although I’ve been forced to do some Java lately. I did C++ in grad school, but haven’t touched it since. That might be a good thing, depending on your perspective. Most recently I have been working on some LAMP (Linux/Apache/MySQL/PHP) applications, which turns out to be a lot more fun than I expected.

My time is split between work, the gym, tennis, reading, photography, catering to my girlfriend, and entertaining our cats.

I’m a member of the Information Systems Security Association Baltimore chapter, as well as a Certified Information Systems Security Professional. For some more insight into my hobbies and stuff, check out the Links page.

There’s only one thing that I know how to do well
And I’ve often been told that you only can do
What you know how to do well
And that’s be you,
Be what you’re like,
Be like yourself,
And so I’m having a wonderful time
But I’d rather be whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
Whistling in the dark
There’s only one thing that I like
And that is whistling in the dark
