His main interests are IT security (more specifically malware) and designing products and services from scratch.</p> <h5 id="virustotal-and-chronicle-are-hiring">VirusTotal and Chronicle are Hiring</h5> <p>VirusTotal is part of Chronicle, and Chronicle <a href="https://careers.google.com/jobs#t=sq&q=j&li=20&l=false&jlo=en-US&j=chronicle&"> is hiring!</a> Come join our team experts to help build out the next generation of security intelligence solutions.
