About

Hi, I’m Eric Lawrence (@ericlaw), and you’re reading my personal blog. I’m not a spokesperson for any organization or entity. Views expressed here on this blog are my own.

I’ve been working on the web in one way or another for twenty five years, including over eighteen years at Microsoft. I created Fiddler and a variety of other software tools. I spent two years helping bring HTTPS everywhere on the web as a member of the Chrome Security team. In 2018, I returned to Microsoft to work on Microsoft Edge and the Windows web platform. In 2022, I shifted to the Microsoft Security team to work on SmartScreen and Defender.

An RSS feed of this site’s posts is available here. You can also find me on GitHub, StackOverflow, HackerOne. I previously blogged in other places, including 237 posts on IEInternals and a smaller number on Telerik’s Fiddler blog. I used to be on Twitter but now I’m on BlueSky.

I live in Austin, Texas with two sons and two cats who keep me on my toes.
