Biography

Jamie Woodruff is a highly respected figure in the world of hacking and cybersecurity. He started his journey into hacking at the age of 9, and his unique skills were first recognised when he uncovered a security flaw in a major social media platform during a student competition at a UK university. This achievement brought him into the spotlight and marked the beginning of his career in cybersecurity.

Known for his calm and approachable nature, Jamie has a distinctive way of presenting, shaped by his autism traits, which allow him to think outside the box and approach challenges from unique perspectives. His down-to-earth style makes complex topics accessible and engaging, setting him apart from others in the field.

Over the years, Jamie has played a key role in uncovering vulnerabilities within major organisations, including identifying security risks in the online presence of high-profile individuals, such as Kim Kardashian. His ethical hacking ensured that their personal data and that of their followers were kept safe from potential threats.

In his current role at a UK-based IT support and security company, Jamie oversees a range of services, including training, cloud solutions, penetration testing, and comprehensive IT support for schools and businesses. He also works with the Cyber Smile Foundation, providing expert advice on cyber safety to help tackle online bullying.

Specialising in social engineering and the human side of cybersecurity, Jamie focuses on improving defences against both digital and physical threats. His presentations cover everything from ransomware to the changing cybersecurity landscape, all delivered with a relaxed and friendly style that helps shift the way people think about security.

Jamie is well known for his creative approach to ethical hacking, which sometimes involves physically infiltrating organisations to expose weaknesses. In one memorable case, he posed as a pizza delivery person and pick-locked his way into the secure areas of a major financial institution – all done with full authorisation as part of a penetration test.

His career highlights his dedication to keeping people and businesses safe in both the physical and digital worlds, all while staying true to his laid-back nature and unique approach.

"Jamie Woodruff went down brilliantly with the clients with his engaging, thought provoking and slightly scary keynote speech and presentation!" Kate Bullard - Baker McKenzie
