Aaron D. Campbell
speaking on Myths and Facts About Securing Your Site in the Developer track
With over 18 years of web development experience, Aaron has worked with a wide range of clients, everything from small, local business to Google, Yahoo, Disney, and Harvard. As of now, he is funded by GoDaddy to work on the WordPress open source project full time and is currently the WordPress Security lead.
