Joe Pecsi

Seasoned cybersecurity professional with a passion for creating solutions that enable others to thrive. My approach centers on building protective systems that let businesses and developers do what they do best with minimal friction and maximum securityOutside of work I have a few hobbies that are still pretty technical like home automation, home theater (big A/V nerd), and tinkering with electronics. While I love technology, I try to balance work and hobbies with non-technical activities to avoid burning out. When the weather is right I love to golf, fish, and go camping with my wife and two dogs
