About Evan Gordenker

Incident Response Consultant specializing in scaled threat actor disruption. I\'ve led 160+ investigations targeting sophisticated adversaries, from North Korean IT worker networks to large-scale platform abuse via API and Gen-AI misuse. I combine Python automation with threat intelligence to help organizations not just respond to incidents, but prevent them entirely.I like transforming reactive security into proactive defense. When a surveillance company threatened privacy, I led the technical response that led to their closure. When Scattered Spider attacked, my team disrupted their exfiltration attempts. Every incident is an opportunity to build stronger defenses.I specialize in:Threat Intelligence & AttributionSecurity Automation (typically with Python)Large-scale Incident ResponseCross-functional Security StrategyInternational Legal CollaborationMy background bridges technical expertise with global perspective. Having lived and worked across the US, EU, and Japan, I bring cultural fluency to international security challenges. Whether I\'m briefing executives, collaborating with federal agencies, or developing detection tools, I focus on one goal: make a measurable difference.
