Winn Schwartau

Winn grew up in a little town, on the upper west side of Manhattan called Spanish Harlem. Then he spent ½ of his youth growing up with beatniks and such in Greenwich Village, another small town in NYC.

The first part of his career was as an audio engineer and producer.

As he now puts it, “I’ve been in security for about 35 years and I think – maybe – I’m just starting to understand it.”

If you want originality in thought, writing, presentations or any aspect of Security, call Winn. In addition to being called, “The Civilian Architect of Information Warfare,” he is one of the country’s most sought after experts on information security, infrastructure protection, and electronic privacy.

This book does not get the credit it deserves. Winn Schwartau is a talented writer and one of the most creative minds in the field of security.
