Welcome to my home. My name is Maksym Schipka. I’m a Senior Architect at MessageLabs. 

I guess I’m a strange kind of a guy. I have lots and lots of interests, but I only get really excited when doing things no one did before, or where others tried, but didn’t succeed. Therefore, I only write about those.

There are loads of websites about security and malware nowadays. They publish security news, discuss vulnerabilities, botnets, spam and malware – all kinds. This is not one of them. 

There are loads of portals about everything and nothing. They try to build the largest community possible and make money by showing ads. This is not one of them.

There are websites devoted to troubleshooting user issues and provinging FAQs around different operating systems. They even try to charge end users for solutions. This is not one of them.

This website is about things I care about, where no one said anything or very little sensible yet. This means here you will find posts about malware, spam, computer software and hardware, books, investments, travel and anything else that bothers me. Also, by popular demand of a number of people, you will find links to my presentations, podcasts, interviews and other stuff – that is, if you care about it.

One last thing: I only sell my expertise. Write me through LinkedIn if that is something you may be interested in.
