As a cybersecurity researcher and crypto activist, Sam’s dedication and passion in the cloud space has been alive and well before the term cloud was born. He has spent the last 20 years in the hosting industry and he founded Host Duplex 8 years ago. Since the launch of HD, Sam and his company have been not only managing WordPress sites but educating clients on security and performance to assist in their success. His clients include some of the most visited WordPress sites on the internet including MacRumors and AppShopper. He quickly realized that client education is vital for not only his success but for their success. With his depth of knowledge of plugin security and compliance regulations, he continually educates his clients on how to be preemptive with security while maintaining the performance they expect.
Sam escaped the cold of the mid-western United States and moved to Southern California 7 years ago. He currently resides in downtown San Diego and is currently learning the ropes of raising a new puppy.
