About Brian Lowe
Brian Lowe is the Team Lead for Penetration Testing at KirkpatrickPrice, where he runs external, internal, web application, cloud, and red team assessments across regulated industries. Before moving into offensive security he served 23 years in the U.S. Air Force, retiring as a Senior Master Sergeant (E-8), with deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan, the UAE, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey and collaborative work alongside the FBI, U.S. Secret Service, State Department, and Department of Energy. He holds CRTO, GWAPT, PNPT, eCPPTv2, GCIH, and CEH, and is credited with CVE-2025-55817, CVE-2021-40492, and CVE-2021-40353. Outside work, Brian is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt under Gustavo Machado, a father of six, and a PopPop of four. His kids think hacking is cool, which is honestly reason enough.
