About Marcin Kleczynski

When Marcin Kleczynski was 14 years old, he inadvertently infected his parents’ computer with malware while searching for video games online—despite having a popular antivirus program protecting the computer. Determined to fix the problem himself, he eventually found help from like-minded friends on the Internet.

Motivated by this experience, Marcin set out to build the world a better malware fighter and became a self-taught computer programmer in the process. By the time he was 18, he had racked up a million dollars in sales for the company he founded— Malwarebytes—all from his college dorm room.
