My name is Mike Behrmann. I am the Director of Digital Forensics and Incident Response at Antigen Security. We are a DFIR-led consulting firm that specializes in incident response, recovery engineering, managed detection & response (MDR) and training. My job there is to oversee the DFIR practice itself: the people, the processes, the tooling, the cases and the customers. I'm an incident commander one minute, diving in like an analyst the next and even doing some business development.
