I tidied this up and then got to wondering. Not notable as far as I can see, though it's not my specialist subject. Article has existed for 9 years now and makes no claim of notability, Only references are passing mentions in the media, none of which are about him, and many are almost certainly promotional. Many dead links. Emeraude ( talk) 17:18, 20 November 2018 (UTC)

- Seen them. Now unreferenced entirely. Still no evidence of notability. Emeraude ( talk) 09:48, 22 November 2018 (UTC)

- Delete - Article seems to be promotional in nature, and otherwise not notable. Also doesn't seem to meet WP:GNG guidelines as I didn't find any independent sources. Jebcubed ( talk) 21:27, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - Article has no sources. Subject doesn't appear notable. -- Willthacheerleader18 ( talk) 00:17, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
- Delete as PROMO for a non-notable "computer security author, technologist and investor." Fails WP:AUTHOR, WP:SIGCOV. E.M.Gregory ( talk) 11:24, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
