About Me

I work as the Tech Lead on the Ubuntu Security Team, since joining Canonical in 2018, helping to keep Ubuntu secure and deliver new security features for Ubuntu. I also host the Ubuntu Security Podcast, a weekly podcast discussing Ubuntu and Linux security topics and covering the work done by the Ubuntu Security Team. I also act as one of the Snap Store Reviewers, providing guidance to snap developers on how to ensure their snaps can be sucessfully published in the store and reviewing / processing requests for privileged snap interfaces etc.

Prior to being employed by Canonical, I have been a longtime user of Ubuntu and have been active in the Ubuntu community for many years, on both the Ubuntu Forums (username alexmurray) and Ask Ubuntu (username alexmurray).

Many years ago I created GNOME Sensors Applet which then informed the more recent Hardware Sensors Indicator which I created originally for the Unity desktop but which thanks to the GNOME Shell AppIndicators extension, can also be run on the modern Ubuntu desktop based on GNOME as well.
