About
I am a Cyber-Security Specialist with over 20 years of professional experience.
I have provided security solutions for massively multi-player online games, such as World of Warcraft, Diablo 3, Defiance, Rift, and Elder Scrolls Online as well as security solutions for other intellectual property created by Zenimax Media Inc, Trion Worlds Inc and Blizzard Entertainment.
I have worked on data intelligence programs for large scale game platform projects such as Battle.net, Bethesda.net, and RedDoor.
I joined the USAF after graduating from high school and was honorably discharged from the Air Force after serving four years working in military intelligence at Lackland AFB in San Antonio, TX. After parting with the military I worked as an intrusion detection/information systems analyst for the Air Force Computer Emergency Response Team (AFCERT) at the Air Intelligence Agency.
I have experience meeting and exceeding regulatory government compliance such as Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) and Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance.
I have provided information security governance through policies and training programs as well as risk management and evaluation for multiple software development companies with both cloud and data center online presence. I am familiar with IT governance programs such as ITIL and COBIT, as well as project management software development methodologies such as Agile.
