BRYANT KELLER'S HOMEPAGE

Who is Bryant Keller?

That is a very difficult question. I am lots of things that have virtually nothing to do with each other. I'll answer that question by introducing you to all of the different parts that make me who I am and letting you judge for yourself.

I am a hobbiest computer science enthusiast. I excel in such subjects as cryptology, networking, security, and programming. I can code in Assembly, C, C++, PERL, PHP, BASIC, Bourne Shell Scripting, Common Lisp, JScript, JavaScript, LiveScript, HTML, and XHTML. I administrate virtually any operating system, though I've not used Apple or Linux in several years. My favorite operating systems include BSDi, OpenBSD, and Windows 2000 Professional. I've toyed around with VXing, Shellcoding, Exploit development, and Reverse Engineering. I spend more time in front of the computer than I do any other activity. I hate EULA and I tend to restrain myself only by my personal morals rather than the fear of legal reprecautions.

My friends and I used to be called The Street Rats by the other kids because we would spend more time hanging out in the streets than we did in class. We lived hard and had fun, but now I see I'm one of the only ones left. I've watched my friends die of drug overdoses, suicide, and on one occation I actually watched a guy kill one my good friends over a bad drug deal. I spend the majority of my social activities in heavy metal bars or working security for my friends band just so I can hurt people. I don't care about anyone except the people who are my friends, and those people I would die for.

I'm a very protective person. I tend to do more for my friends than I do for myself. I tend to confuse people when they first meet me, because at times I seem extremely mean and other times I'm the nicest guy in the world. I'll bend over backwards to help someone in need, not because I care for them, but because I expect as much from myself. I've been known to stand up for people who can't stand up for themselves, even when doing so puts me into an even worse situation. I've always felt like I'm stuck in the role of the Big Brother. This is because I help people not out of caring for them, rather than the feeling of pitty and hatred of the system which is harming the person. And through all of this, somewhere subconciencely, I just want for someone to help me as I help others. And as ironic as it seems, I always refuse help from others even when I need it most.

I can read people like a book. I've only been ripped off once in my life, and I ended up with $200USD in my pocket to keep me from taking further actions against the person. I freelance my abilities out to the highest bidder, and my back is never against the wall. I always know the fastest way out of trouble and I don't back down once I've set a goal. I once had a very large and popular company [which I will keep nameless] send their lawyers after me for breaking a contractual agreement. Four days later, all suits where dropped and I was given compensation for my time. I have a very high moral fabric and I'm always good on my word, for better or worse.

All learning starts with a question and if you question what you already know, you will continue to learn. This is something I have lived by all my life. I have no greater joy than helping someone learn something valueable. If I can teach a person something that they did not know, I can in turn expect to learn more. Because one day that person may use what I have showed them to find out something new, and I will have something else to learn. By teaching those around you the things that you know, you raise the very level of intellegence. And by doing so, everyone profits.

In Conclusion

No person can be defined in a single manner. I wrote the above by focusing on the different parts of my personality and asking myself who I am. Each one at times contridicts the others, but they are all true to who I am. In general, I'm just another guy from Cartersville, Georgia. I don't try to impress anyone and I hate when people so obviously try to impress me. I just try to be who I am, and let nature sort everything else out.
