Alan Morewood has been involved with open source since discovering Linux in 1992. In 1993, he started as a systems administrator for Bell Sygma, bringing the standard GNU tools to the attention of the sysadmins familiar only with expensive commercial tools. While at Bell Sygma, he learned about security by managing the main corporate Internet gateway and establishing the first bell.ca platform. Bell Canada's corporate security department solicited his participation in 1996 where he continues today by coaching employees in the relationship between networks, system administration, security, and business needs. Alan has a B.A.Sc in Systems Design Engineering from Waterloo, a P.Eng, and is CISSP and BSDA certified.</style></custom1></record></records></xml>
