Tony is a Marine Corps veteran and active U.S. Army Reservist who spent two decades building and scaling networking and security companies. He focuses on the operational side of security — the part involving people, process, and the unglamorous work of turning architecture diagrams into running systems.

He co-founded Sucuri with Daniel in 2010 and ran operations through the acquisition by GoDaddy, building the incident-response team and the practices that let Sucuri handle thousands of compromised sites every month. His earlier career included time at Cubic Corporation in defense and federal systems work.

Today he's a co-founder of CleanBrowsing, NOC.org, Trunc, and DNS Archive — plus The Ranch Barbell, an Olympic weightlifting gym. He writes regularly at perezbox.com.

At netsec-ops, Tony leads engagements around incident response, compliance programs (PCI, HIPAA, SOC 2), and operational maturity work — helping teams build the on-call, runbook, and post-incident-review discipline that separates a working security program from a collection of tools. If you're hiring us after an incident, getting audit-ready, or building out a security operations function — you're working with Tony and the team.
