Bio
I have worked in technology and cybersecurity for many years. I developed both Ph.D. and MS Cybersecurity programs. An important consideration was the alignment and compliance to various international standards, such as International Security Management ISO/IEC 27001 standards, the National Security Agency (NSA/DHS) Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance (CAEs) and National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) and have led to remarkable success. It was my responsibility to make sure that the cybersecurity program was up to date, accredited and pushing the envelope of the cybersecurity discipline.
I’ve mentored cybersecurity dissertations in many different areas, including digital forensics, Internet of Things, Cloud computing, Big Data, Security Awareness, Industrial Control Systems, Wireless computing, etc. I continue to research in such fields as Machine Language/AI security, Edge Security, Blockchain, Privacy Regulations like CDPR, Ransomware/Crypto wall, IoT and IoT monitoring, and the never-ending stealing of computer resources by cybercriminals. I have worked in assisting leading business with their backbone and rollouts of Virtual Private Technologies to thousands of companies with millions of users. I have consulted an endless array of technical projects including VPNs, biometrics, firewalls, privacy protections, advanced persistent threats, Internet of Things, etc. Previously, I worked on Wall Street protecting brokerage houses, government facilities, and trading institutions from cyber threats.
