“Independent cybersecurity commentary. No fluff. No spin. Just signal.”
The contributors to
Fabricati Diem are not just names on a byline — they’re the ones who’ve peered into the digital abyss, taken notes, and returned with something worth reading.
These are cybersecurity professionals who’ve chosen to share their knowledge, experience, and occasionally their war stories, all in the name of better security and sharper thinking. Their insights are forged in the fires of real-world incidents, late-night log dives, and the kind of existential dread only a zero-day can inspire.
We recognize their contributions here not just out of courtesy, but because credit matters — especially when it’s earned the hard way.
To borrow a line from Neuromancer,
The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.
These authors have stared into that static and decided to write it down.
Read their work. Learn something. Maybe even send them a thank-you note or buy them a beer.
Silvan Gebhardt is a systems architect and senior security engineer with a
background in infrastructure optimization, open-source tooling, and adversarial
AI testing. He supports Helheim Labs with secure deployments and research
infrastructure for AI experimentation.
Dr. Satu Korhonen (M.Eng.) is a leading expert in AI security, adversarial AI
testing, educational game design, and the applied ethics of generative systems.
In 2025, she was recognized as one of AI Finland’s “kärkinAInen” (Top Women in
AI) for her significant contributions to the field. As the founder of
Helheim Labs, a speaker, and an educator, she is dedicated to
advancing AI literacy and ensuring the safe, secure, and responsible
implementation of artificial intelligence.
Agnė Brilingaitė holds PhD in Computer Science from Aalborg University,
Denmark. She is an associate professor and researcher at the
Institute of Computer Science, Vilnius University. Her research interests focus on
data and knowledge engineering, cybersecurity training, and education in
computer science. She leads the EEA funded project Advancing human
performance in cybersecurity, ADVANCES, where multiple disciplines are
applied to develop learning paths for cyber workforce. Agnė’s passion is
deconstructing complex data to the atomic details, understand data
component interrelations, and apply this knowledge in the
problem-solving process.
Tomi Koski has been working with IT-systems for many moons, actually since (the
wonderful) 1990’s. He is passionate about anything related to security, combining
both physical and virtual worlds. He is a constant learner and very curious
person about life and bug bounties. Currently, he is working for
Visma as a Red (read: Purple) Teamer. Please check out his contributions
on Github.
Joona is a hacker who has experience from multiple vantage points and aspects
of information security and software development, defensive and offensive
alike. As an open so(u)rcer he is an author or contributor to multiple popular
security tools. He is currently working as a Red Team manager at
Visma.
Juhani “Jussi” Eronen has been working in infosec since the late
1990s. He started out with software vulnerability research in the Oulu
University Secure Programming Group, OUSPG. Since 2006 he has
worked at the Finnish National Cyber Security Centre,
NCSC-FI, in various tasks ranging from incident response to
improving the security of emerging technologies.
Driven by a fascination with the hidden dangers lurking in our digital world,
Lari Huttunen has been involved in cybersecurity since the late 1990s. Along the way, he’s investigated cybercrime, uncovered 0-days through fuzzing, and contributed to research on the global impact of known vulnerabilities and exposures. The goal has always been the same: to develop practical solutions, raise awareness, and help others see what’s hiding in plain sight.
