Additional Information

Scotty has a passion for helping people of all experience levels enter the cybersecurity field. With 34 years' experience in I.T. and cybersecurity, Scotty brings a wealth of real-life experience to the mentorship program he founded in 2019. The CyberSecurity Sensei team meets weekly for live webinars, and contains an industry-first volunteer Incident Response Team (IRT), where members obtain critical Incident Response Analyst resume experience each month.
