He has provided valuable advisory services to the committee for network security at the American Public Transit Association and led successful Red Team efforts, including mission profile penetration testing of transit authority trail control systems. His expertise extends to network and cyber security and the resilience of trustless systems like Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, which he recently shared in a presentation to the United States Secret Service.

Before his endeavors in the technology industry, he served as an Army officer in various operational and staff roles within the US Army Special Forces.

This military background significantly influences Peter's approach to security, emphasizing system hardening, mitigation, and resiliency. Concepts such as defense in depth, cell structure security, message-based architecture, and discardable resources form the foundation of his security philosophy, which he shares with his security-conscious clients.
