profiling infoweapons

This company interests me. It is trying to do a Silicon Valley style business model in the Philippines. Although its HQ is in the U.S., its main R&D center is in Cebu City, Philippines.

It's developing IPv6 products. Today's internet runs on IPv4 engines. It is (claimed to be) inevitable that an upgrade to IPv6 engines is needed.

This is an attempt at profiling the company by identifying some persons related with it.

Other local companies that interest me are morph and exist . These are next in line for "profiling".

All the information here are gathered through google.

From the management page of the company:
  • Lawrence Hughes, Chairman, Founder and Chief Software Architect
  • Luis Gopez, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer
  • Takashi Togawa , President and Chief Operating Officer
  • Matthew Caldwell, Chief Technology Officer
  • Owen Greeson, Vice President Business Development
  • Steve Youngblood, Vice President Sales and Marketing

From this presentation:
Management (not listed above):
  • Director of R&D – Scott Kamp, lead of MicroBSD project, former Director of R&D with a firewall company
  • InfoSec Officer – Oliver Cam, formerly InfoSec officer of mySecureSign (very strong security background)
  • Project Management – Gerald St. Ana – was in charge of R&D at Japanese company based in Cebu (ADTX)
Staff
  • Ronnel Maglasang – C/UNIX developer - was doing router development with NEC in Cebu Mepza
  • Mars Miro – BSD OS Specialist
  • Vincent Palingcod – MS & Crypto Developer
  • Dino Madarang – Senior PHP Developer
  • Paolo Venegas – Junior PHP Developer
  • Shelley Madarang – Web Design, Usability Engineering
  • Archie Gaviola – IPv6 Network Engineer
  • Ivan Sy – Instructor, Network Engineer, QA
The above is a June 2005 document. Maybe some of them are no longer there. Kamp, Cam, and St. Ana are not listed in the current Executive Management page of the company's website.

Others.
The following are search results that say they are working for the company. Others are just e-mail addresses.

That was the point of the exercise. Google, instead of official info. :)
