Introductions

Hello to the community!

My name is Ben McCarthy and I have been working at Immersive for 6 years now and have watched it grow to the platform it is today. 

Cyber security is a huge passion of mine, and I spend a lot of time reverse engineering for malware analysis or exploit development. I have reversed engineered malware that people are unaware of and have found exploits in production software that has gone through disclosure. If anyone wants to discuss these with me I will chat forever!

I lead the cyber threat intelligence team here at Immersive where we release labs on the latest threats against our customers industries within 24 hours - this involves CVEs, latest malware trends and emerging threats. It can be stressful but also very fun.

I can't introduce myself without talking about the new addition to my household; I have a rescue cat called "Cat"; he is about 15, has one eye and three teeth, and is the most loving animal! Here he is :)
