Dahvid Schloss, an Emulated Mob Boss presiding over a dubious band of emulated criminals, began his journey as a Special Operations RTO/Communication operator before pivoting into Offensive Cyber Operations in the military. From there, he tormented a prominent Big 4 consulting firm with his red teaming prowess before moving into director-level offensive security roles at smaller outfits. Over the course of 13+ years in the industry, he’s refined his craft in cyber-attack including logical, social, and physical infiltration, alongside expanding his knowledge in defensive realms like incident response and hardening of systems and networks. When he’s not plotting emulated security mayhem, he moonlights as a Malware Development Instructor, generously imparting his specialized brand of subversive expertise to the next generation of cyber operatives. Beyond his leadership and advisory roles, Dahvid is recognized for his public speaking prowess and proud to hold a coveted DEF CON Black Badge.
