"He claims he's a Robin Hood," says one victim, "but to me he's just a robber and a hood."
Security Paragon is run by ralpmets in the USA. He's been involved in technology for what seems like eons.
His curiosity with computer networking started when he asked himself the question "how does information get from one place to another over this Internet thing?" From there, answers led to more questions until he was immersed.
This immersion naturally progressed into a career doing network and systems administration work. The experiences he gained through in-depth study and these positions led to even more understanding of the engineering behind protocols and network services.
His insatiable interest for Information Security developed when he learned how to break networks and systems in ways they weren't designed, minus the legal repercussions. Thanks to virtualization and resources such as TryHackMe, HackTheBox, and especially Vulnhub, he could test his chops on broken systems without sharing a jail cell with a toothless thug named Chester.
