Who are we?
David Stang and Jim Hetland.
We were there at the start. Stang became interested in computer viruses when there were only 6 of them, and founded the National COmputer Security Association, answering virus questions from members and non-members, researching viruses, writing about them, and giving seminars around the world. NCSA became the ICSA, and then TruSecure, a publicly traded corp.
Stang founded and ran QuARC, the Quarterdeck Antivirus Research Center. His virus analysis system was the first fully automated system that could capture an unknown virus in a user's machine, transmit it to the lab, analyze it, create detection and removal instructions, test those instructions, create new scan strings, get the instructions to the user in need, and clean the test machine for the next sample.
Stang directed the North American operations of Norman Data Defense, and wrote the winning bid for defending the entire U.S. Dept of Defense from viruses. While at Norman, Norman Virus Control was the official AV product for DoD, and Stang answered support questions from the Department.
Later, Stang cofounded PestPatrol, an anti-malware product that soon became the best known and best selling anti-spyware product. Stang was in charge of Research, Development, and Support, and the product, for its first 3 years of life, was his creation. Jim Hetland then took over coding tasks, leaving Stang free to concentrate on pest research. In its fourth year, PestPatrol was sold to CA, and Stang and Hetland eventually retired.
Jim Hetland has been working in information technology since before we called it that -- there were only coal-fired computers back then -- and has held most of the jobs the industry offers. With titles ranging from computer operator and junior programmer to Senior Principal Consultant, Executive Director and Chief Technology Officer, he can reasonably claim to know his way around the business. But he's always been a hands-on guy, and has programmed for fun and profit in more languages, and on more platforms, than even most propeller-heads have ever heard of. He loves this stuff.
So we can code, and we know this business. Why are we doing it again? Because the computer world is breaking under the weight of malware. We just can't bear to sit by and watch.
