About Me

Threat hunter, endurance athlete, musician, photographer, and habitual builder.

Brady Bruton

I’m Brady. I’m a threat hunter, endurance athlete, musician, photographer, and habitual builder of things that probably could have remained simple.

I’ve spent most of my life somewhere between technical and creative. I like understanding how systems work, finding patterns, solving problems, and then going several layers deeper than the situation probably requires.

A Builder from the Beginning

I started working with technology early. At 14, I was punching down network jacks for my dad’s cabling company. That eventually grew into years of work involving networks, fiber, cameras, access control, AV systems, and the physical infrastructure behind technology.

In my twenties, I started a company building custom road cases. Every project involved a mix of customer needs, 3D design, spreadsheets, CNC fabrication, and hands-on construction. We built cases for musicians, production companies, schools, medical equipment, and technology companies.

Those experiences taught me that I’m happiest when I can understand a problem, design a solution, and make something useful.

What I Do Now

Today, I work as a threat hunter. I dig through telemetry, threat intelligence, and unusual behavior to find activity that existing security tools may have missed.

Cybersecurity gives me a nearly endless supply of systems to understand and questions to chase.

Outside of Work

I tend to approach hobbies with the same curiosity.

I play guitar and keys, write music, and have performed, recorded, and toured with a variety of artists. I enjoy photography, especially when it involves documenting the people and experiences around me.

I’m also an endurance athlete. I’ve progressed from barely being able to run a mile to Ironman, ultramarathons, and 356 miles at Unbound XL. I enjoy the training, the data behind it, and occasionally finding out just how questionable an idea can become before I decide to attempt it.

Most of what you’ll find here comes back to the same basic idea: get curious, learn how something works, see where it leads, and find out how far you can push it.
