About



I'm Jonathan Weiss - a Ruby on Rails developer and partner at Peritor GmbH, a Rails consulting and development firm in Berlin, Germany.


I work on our projects as the technical lead around Ruby on Rails, Web 2.0, JavaScript, Security, and Knowledge Management. Further I coach and train other people in using Ruby on Rails successfully.


Besides this work I'm contributing to some Open Source projects like FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Ruby On Rails. I maintain some FreeBSD and OpenBSD ports and write documentation and howtos.


Security topics like Honeypots, IDS, penetration testing, (web) application security, and secure coding are also on my list of interests.


If you want to get hold of me try jw_-AT-_innerewut.de, Xing, or Twitter where I'm known as jweiss . You get a good chance to catch me in person at one of those conferences: Linuxtag, RailsConf Europe, Web 2.0 Expo, Chaos Communication Congress.
