Eric Mill is optimizing for the best of the internet.

I manage the security and safety roadmap for Wikipedia, where I lead a team that is getting modern bot detection in place, securing its user accounts, and generally making it safe for anyone at all to continue editing.

Before this, I've been all over the place: product security lead for the Chrome browser, technology policy in the White House for the Federal Chief Information Officer, and spent some of the best years of my young life scraping government websites for the public benefit at the long-gone Sunlight Foundation. I most recently devoted a few years of my energy toward rebooting the U.S. government's cloud security oversight program, FedRAMP, in law, policy, and practice.

I'm most proud of playing a role in moving the web to HTTPS, being a lead author of the law that codified the .gov domain and moved it into good hands, and making something that was featured in an XKCD comic.
