About

I’m Glenn Wilkinson; hacker, speaker, and CEO of Agger Labs. Agger kills ransomware before encryption can even begin. We built it after seeing first-hand how fast ransomware hits and how slow traditional tools respond. Alongside running Agger, I still do what I love: explaining how attackers think. I’ve hacked 100+ organisations (legally), delivered 50+ live-demo keynotes, and trained everyone from C-suites to law enforcement teams on how to stay ahead of real-world threats. If you want: • a keynote that actually shows how hackers work • or a ransomware solution that stops attacks *before* they start get in touch.
