Who We Are?
Our Mission
Provide learning and skill building in information security technologies to the public in order to enhance the Nation’s security posture, protect individual privacy and secure our homes and businesses.
In 2021, the number of small businesses in the US reached 32.5 million, making up nearly all (99.9 percent) US businesses. Information security budget allocations are small to non-existent for these entities. We leverage free and open source (FOSS) technologies and demonstrate how to install and configure them to operate securely so you can allocate your precious to other business requirements.
Extraordinary Learning
Life long learning is a key to success in all endeavors. The world is constantly changing, and security tactics techniques and procedures must change along with the threat landscape.

Our series of tutorials, courses and blog posts can assist you in achieving your learning goals.
