Lucas Nelson, hacker turned VC, began breaking into computers in the early 1990s. An early member of Ninja Strike Force (“NSF”), a subgroup of the notorious Cult of the Dead Cow (“cDc”) hacking supergroup, he later joined the pioneering cybersecurity consultancy and research firm ATstake (“@stake”). After a decade plus of being a cybersecurity practitioner, Lucas transitioned into early-stage venture, investing at US Venture Partners, DFJ Gotham, and Evolution Equity before co-founding Lytical Ventures.
