About the Author
and the author of various online guides and resources. He got his first taste of free
software in 1997 and never looked back since then. In 2003, he joined the ranks of the
Gentoo Linux project as a documentation developer and has crossed several roles
after that, including Gentoo Foundation’s trustee, council member, project leads for
documentation, and (his current role) project lead for Gentoo Hardened’s SELinux
integration.
In this time frame, he has gained expertise in several technologies, ranging from
operating system level knowledge to application servers as he used his interest
in security to guide his projects further: security guides using SCAP languages,
mandatory access controls through SELinux, authentication with PAM, (application)
firewalling, and more.
On SELinux, he has contributed several policies to the reference policy project and
participates actively in policy development and user space development projects.
Sven is an IT infrastructure architect working at a European financial institution.
Secured implementation of infrastructure (and the surrounding architectural
integration) is of course an important part of this. Prior to this, he graduated with an
MSc in Computer Engineering at the University of Ghent and then worked as a web
application infrastructure engineer with IBM WebSphere AS.
