About the Author
Bill Pretty
began his career in electronics in the early '80s with a small telecom
start-up company that would eventually become a large multinational. He left that
company to pursue a career in commercial aviation in Canada's north. From there,
he joined the Ontario Center for Microelectronics, a provincially funded research
and development center. After that, a career in the military as a civilian contractor
at what was then called the Defense Research Establishment Ottawa. This began a
career that was to span the next 25 years, and continues today.
Over the years, he has acquired extensive knowledge in the field of technical
security and started his own company in 2010. That company is called William
Pretty Security Inc. and provides support, in the form of research and development,
to various law enforcement and private security agencies.
He has published and presented a number of white papers on the subject of technical
security. He was also a guest presenter for a number of years at the Western Canada
Technical Conference, a law enforcement-only conference held every year in western
Canada. A selection of these papers is available for download from his website

There a number of people I would like to thank, for without their
support, this book would never have been completed. My good
friends at Packt Publishing for having the patience and trust in
me once again. To my partner in life, Donna, who never stopped
believing in me. Last but not least, my good friends and fellow code
warriors Willie the Mad Scott and Glen the flying Dutchman.
