About

Welcome to ScioShield.uk

My name is Dylan Shield. I'm a DevSecOps engineer with a passion for security. Glad to see you here.

The name is a mash-up of Scio Latin for "to know" and Shield my surname. Knowledge being the beginning of any reasonable defence, obligatory Sun Tzu quote

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.” - Sun Tzu, The Art of War"

The alliteration is also purposeful so it is easier to remember.

Feel free to contact me via email at dylan@scioshield.uk if you have any questions or comments.

Raison d'être

The purpose of this blog is to act as a creative outlet, I will post interesting things from time to time. This blog is not an authoritative guide to the world of cyber-security, merely one mans take on the state of things.

For the benefit of those willing to search.
