Domininkas Virbickas, perito em cibersegurança

Domininkas Virbickas

O Domininkas é um engenheiro de coração, cuja paixão pela construção de produtos o levou a posições como VP de engenharia, CTO e, finalmente, diretor de produto na NordVPN. O seu interesse pela cibersegurança começou com uma conta Uber pirateada — uma surpresa indesejável que provou ser uma lição e um primeiro passo no caminho para contribuir para uma Internet mais segura. O Domininkas acredita firmemente que as burlas online são a maior ameaça para os utilizadores diários da Internet. Embora afirme que o tempo das burlas com príncipes nigerianos já passou, o especialista concorda que os seus sucessores são muito mais sofisticados e perigosos do que nunca. A combinação da formação em engenharia e da sua liderança na gestão de produtos permite ao Domininkas ter o melhor de dois mundos, fornecendo aos utilizadores produtos eficientes, seguros e fáceis de utilizar.
