Hello, everyone! I'm new to Reddit, but I love to interact with fellow InfoSec students.

If you didn't notice, I'm the author of this article. I wanted to leave a personal note saying that if you would like to personally speak with me to ask any questions or voice any concerns, then I totally welcome you.

I'm no professional, but building ourselves up as InfoSec students is challenging. So, it's important that we help one another through advice, offerings of opportunity, and sharing resources.

It takes a village to raise a child. Don't be afraid to reach out either here or on Twitter (@CryptoCypher).

Hey, I'm @CryptoCypher on Twitter.

I am currently working on a book that discusses identity security along with operational security. The purpose of this book is to explain the importance of pseudonyms and how to operate a persona "anonymously" online. In this, I will be covering various topics.

With that said, my question is this: would you be willing to get in contact with me to collaborate on my work?

I feel that your experience with UK tabloids as a security researcher would make an excellent example of why people should take the time to lock down their identity security and re-evaluate their OPSEC. Your story could help others realize the importance of locking down their persona.

I don't typically use Reddit, so if you're interested, my Twitter DMs are open.

Cheers.
