The Honeynet Project has appointed Ali Ikinci as the new CEO.
We wish to thank Faiz Ahmad Shuja for leading the project over the past years, and welcome Ali for accepting the challenge.
Founder and current leader of the Turkish Chapter, Ali is a longtime Honeynet Project member and contributor: he co-authored research papers on malicious website detection with low-interaction honeyclients and on honeypots for the Internet of Things.
