Antonio Ropero (46) was a Cofounder of Virus Total, a well-known company acquired by Google in 2012, and Hispasec, a Spanish cybersecurity company.

He was a true hacker, a wonderful person, a magician, and a origami lover.

RIP, Antonio.

I remember reading Hispasec's "una al dia" in the early 00's or late 90's as a preadolescent (plus other Spanish scene stuff like the SET ezine and stuff from Hispahack iirc), it was literally my first "deep" step into computers and telecommunication networks. QEPD Antonio!
