Show Notes
In this episode, we have the powerful Tamas Henning, Director of Security Engineering at Marqeta and also Trust and Safety Advisor for XR Safety Initiative.
Tamas got started in technology at a very young age and that is credited to his dad. In the Early 90s his dad built a software company, and he was a super curious kid. By 6th grade, he learned trigonometry just so he could recreate Tetris.
Take a listen to this incredible origin story and passion project of securing XR.
