Dr. Mic Merritt

Offensive Security & Adversarial AI

I’m Dr. Mic Merritt, founder of Merritt Collective, a computer scientist and offensive cybersecurity leader focused on adversarial AI, frontier-model evaluation, and adversarial emulation.

Through Merritt Collective, I conduct AI security research and consulting, designing and reviewing adversarial cybersecurity evaluations of generative AI systems. My work examines reasoning, attack paths, emerging offensive capabilities, and cyber harm across extended multi-turn interactions.

My background includes 24 years of military service, enterprise offensive security, and cybersecurity education. I bring that experience to research, technical consulting, and security advisory work at Merritt Collective.
