I wanted to take a quick moment to welcome Samuel Colt Van Ryder to the blogosphere. I know Sam for a number of years now. He was a sales person here at StillSecure for a long time working both with channel partners and direct sales. During that time I got to know Sam pretty well.  He is an interesting fellow.  A genuine Texan, Sam is a descendant of the Colt 45 Colts.  He moved to Switzerland, where he met his wife.  They then moved back to Texas where he has raised his family and worked in the security industry.  Always a stand up professional, I have stayed in touch with Sam after he left our company and went to work at Alert Logic. 

It seems that Sam has grown tired of trying to get Misha to blog regularly on the Alert Logic blog, so he has taken it over himself.  He posted his first article today. Good for Sam and we will be reading to see what he adds to our community discussions.  Welcome aboard Sam!

Speaking of community, the Alert Logic blog was already a member of the Security Bloggers Network.  However, the network is over 135 blogs strong with a combined distribution of 50,000 feedburner subscribers!  You can subscribe to the combined feed of all of these blogs by clicking here.
