Poznań, Poland

I work in IT for almost 25 years. Previously I worked for big global companies like Wikia or Allegro Group. Since 2013, I run my own company, and help various companies as a consultant, rather than full-time employee.

Why sponsor me

I work on several IT security related products (details below). By sponsoring me, you make the world a safer place to live and use IT in daily life. Your sponsorship allows me to continue developing features that will be used by law enforcement in many countries to fight criminal activities.

My projects

I work mainly on 2 types of open source projects:

  1. Offensive security tools for law enforcement and Red Teams (Drive Badger, Funkcjonariusz, stylometric tools etc.).
  • as for Drive Badger, I have very broad plans around external tools dedicated especially for law enforcement in various countries, to help them control and reduce operational costs, as well as increase operational capabilities. See project roadmap: https://drivebadger.com/roadmap.html
  1. Secure infrastructure management tools for small-midsize companies (Server Farmer, Zone Manager, Polynimbus). Most of these tools are mature and need only maintenance:
  • adding support for new versions of Debian, Ubuntu, RHEL etc. (right now, only LTS versions are supported)
  • following changes in IP allocations for major ISPs
  • new nice-to-have features: Heartbeat monitoring client for Windows, support for more cloud providers in Polynimbus

My other professional activities

I'm the Editor-in-Chief of 2 magazines (both in polish language):

  • payload.pl - popular magazine focused around IT security (mostly around ransomware)
  • asperger15k.pl - about career and life success with Asperger Syndrome

How do I plan to use obtained funds

All obtained funds will be used in 3 ways:

  • according to Tier descriptions (bigger Tiers include my dedicated time for you)
  • to develop currently the most urgently needed feature(s) in any of the above projects
  • or to develop only particular feature(s) within your chosen project(s) - if you choose this option, please send me the details

I'll be able to quit all side jobs and focus on open source full time!
