Jordan Ritter Biography

Jordan Ritter is one of the most popular and richest Software Architect who was born on February 1, 1978 in Northridge, California, United States. In 1999 Netect acquired by BindView. Ritter was retained as part of the deal.

Throughout his tenure during 2001-2006, Ritter oversaw the architectural design and implementation of all Cloudmark commercial software, systems and operating infrastructure.

In the summer of 2001, Ritter started development on anti-spam technology using machine-learning statistical classification algorithms. Named Spilter, the software was originally an open-source system that ran on UNIX-compatible messaging infrastructure such as Sendmail, Postfix and Qmail. Following the success of the product’s first release, Ritter was convinced to pursue it instead as a commercial enterprise, which led him to close-source the software and begin mapping out a business plan.

As a worker for BindView, Ritter met Shawn Fanning on the internet via the IRC channel for hackers on computers known as #!w00w00. It was in the month of May, 1999 that Fanning was able to start asking Ritter along with other members of w00w00 to help.

As Fanning initially refused to permit access to the code source members saw the challenge as an opportunity and began to reverse-engineer various parts that comprised the server. Ritter along with fellow member of w00w00 Seth McGann focused on the protocol and backend software, finding bugs and suggesting possible fixes to Fanning and w00w00 participant Evan Brewer managed the system that the server operated on. In the beginning of the month of June, 1999 Fanning requested Ritter to completely take over the creation of Napster’s server, while Fanning concentrated in his Windows client. A few months later, Yosi Amram invested $250,000 in Napster and demanded that the Napster’s operations be relocated out of Massachusetts into California. Ritter relocated into Silicon Valley in September 1999 and initially shared his apartment Fanning along with Sean Parker at the San Mateo Marriott Residence Inn.

Ritter resigned from Napster on November 14, 2000.
